TT's without tumour
 

I can't believe how many Ontario plated 2000 - 2006 Audi TT's I have seen lately on the road that are obvious US imports that have not had their bumpers changed to CDN specs. Also I have seen several for sale both private and on lots without conversion. How the hell do these people get away with this???

they lie to the RIV....you just need to find a shop that will lie for you....when i get the new TTrs from the states i dont want to put the CDN bumper on it!!! but we might have a bumper amement in the next few weeks!!!

so i was looking into the bumper law and look what i found!!!!!News Alerts updated June 25, 2008

Government of Canada Harmonizes bumper standard
The Government of Canada has amended the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations (MVSR) to harmonize the Canadian bumper standard for passenger cars with similar safety standards from the United States and Europe.

no more tumour!!!! woohoo!!!!!

Re: TT's without tumour
 

This will really help with Canada getting many cars we could not get our hands on before. I wonder if VW will now import vehicles like the R32 and Polo? I guess we can all chuck out our bumper car bumper tumours now!

Re: TT's without tumour
 

the new list of cars is not out as of yet...but they say 30+ cars are on the list!!! the R32 would be nice for less then 29k

Re: TT's without tumour
 

I would certainly love to get my hands on an R32, basically an 08 TT for less than 30K!

Be aware that Audi still sends out bumper mod letters with the recall letter as they have not been officially notified by the Canadian Government yet as to the harmonization. The recall clearance letter is a bunch of crap as well as it would be simple for a dealer to issue a notice on their letterhead but no you have to jump through hoops for Audi USA and wait 5 to 7 work days for what they tell you on the phone. They also tell me that they are not set up to email this letter. This is the 21st century and they can't email. They are pissed that they no longer can make money off these bumper mods.
