That's crazy. You can get into a brand new 11 for less than 9000 down here. How much does it cost to get it across the boarder?
Dont know exactly how much it costs but its cheaper to drive down to the states and pick one up then buy in canada but then you dont get warranty. Its more just the time and hassle with customs that stops everyone from doing this. I have heard of some guys driving semi's down picking up sleds and selling them for a pretty good profit up here. Dont get me started on vehicle prices newer diesels go for 10000-15000 more than ones in the states. Since im on a little rant any accessories for my truck, sled or quad that are over $50 its usually cheaper getting it shipped from the states then buying up here and thats what i do. Takes longer but i usually save a lot of money.
Yeah. Everything costs more up in Canada haha.
As for the guys saying don't bother with an older M7, if you find a good deal on one, and its in decent condition, save a bit of money, grab it up and put a few mods on it. The biggest thing an M7 needs in my opinion are suspension upgrades.

Check out kijiji. Theres 2010 m8's from $5500-$7500
You guys in BC got some better prices but you have a lot more mountain sleds. Prices seemed to be all over the place from $5500- $11000 i saw. Cheaper ones all got new primary's on them guess guys just want them gone?

I will check kijjiji, that actually never occurred to me 
I was talking to a buddy the other day about the states thiing, he said the amount you save from getting it down there you dont need warranty, b/c you'll have enough to buy a new friggin engine!
Im a 1st year apprentice currently, so not to much $ but the time will come soon

we just went last saturday to the torpy lots of fluff, no base but still lots of fun for the first ride : ya shoot me a pm. we ride alot out at the north fraser road as well. awesome stuff out there.
10k for a '10 with 3000 miles. I will deliver this one to you for $8500 US, I could call it a vacation and do some sledding on the way. I'm sure there is a cheaper way though.

ya the 'whoops' arn't very fun, especially on a wedge chassis ahah. Not sure where we unloaded either but its by the that turn around where the road forks off in the opposite direction, and theres a big sign (i think it says something about logging?). Anywho, I wanna say its about an hour in but not to sure. I think we're going again on the 23, just to find a nice open spot and play around in it.
