Finding and Purchasing a Vehicle:
You can choose to purchase from a Factory, Dealer, or
Private Owner. The choice you make will determine several
elements in your experience.
- Factory
Delivery: If you are buying the car from a factory,
the process is simple, you select your car, arrive
at the Factory New Car Delivery Center, and take delivery
of you brand new vehicle.
There are several reliable ways to look for vehicles:
- Dealer/Private
Owner:
If you are buying a car from a Dealer or a Private
Owner, we can assist you, or you can choose to make
your own arrangements. Here are some things to think
about and some links to resources:
European
Driving Experience - After completing the purchase
of your vehicle, you can join the ATI Tour group, and
enjoy the rest of the Tour itinerary. Your shipping
point should be coordinated with the Tour's final destination.
Shipping - Vehicle carrier will pick up the car
at the specified Tour destination, or destination of
your choosing.
Importing
& Delivery in the US - Your purchase will have
determined what happens here.
(Also see Import Table)
- Vehicles
manufactured to meet the EPA/DOT requirements will
have a certification label affixed by the original
manufacturer in the area of the driver’s door.
- To
make importation easier, when purchasing a vehicle
certified to the U.S. standards abroad, a buyer should
have the sales contract verify that the label is attached
and present this document at time of importation.
- If
you purchased a US-spec vehicle from a factory,
or a car that meets import regulations, then you need
do nothing more than wait for it to be delivered to
your home.
- If
you purchased a car that needs to be modified to meet
the regulations,
then you would want to use a government Registered
Importer . We can help you make the arrangements
to have the vehicle delivered to the Importer for
the modifications, and subsequently, you can either
pick the car up at their location, or have it delivered
to you from the Importer's location.
