I am assuming it must be much higher import duties for new vehicles going into Sweden. Otherwise, brand new H2 are selling for not too much more money. Are you aware of the current GM employee discount program? I just went on HUMMER site and both the SUV & SUT are listing at $49,718. And I am sure you can still negotiate a little more. My understanding is GM are paying the dealers 5% of original msrp under this program plus there is a $1,000 incentive. So depending on how hungry/desperate the dealership is, knocking another $3,000 off is possible.

ditto? You just said you never heard about it.
Any new american produced car needs to be registrated on a valid american address.
Ofcourse there are brokers that one can use.

There are still a handful of '05's that have the tire mounted inside.
Prior to January build models, they didn't have the standard outside mount. So, you may be able to save yourself -- and the dealership -- some trouble!  </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
My purchase will be done around January 2006, so I dont think I want to 2005 on the first month of 06, if you know what I mean. Eventhough saving that trouble sounds very tempting...

I sell Hummers, and I cannot sell a new Hummer if I know it is going to be exported outside of the states, the vehicle must be titled to an address in the United States. GM keeps a tight reign on Hummer stores and makes sure that we're all in the car business, not the exporting business. A Hummer store in Detroit almost lost their franchise because of this, and countless other Hummer stores have been fined in the hundreds of thousands of dollars regarding this stuff. Like W1N and some others said, it's a GM thing. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
aggiehummer...er, one question. Do you need SSN to buy a Hummer or is a valid address all you need for the paper work?

Strange. ALL dealers i talk to say they can´t sell to anyone outside of the US.
I´m sure there are people here working selling Hummers. Churhill? that can comment on this.
Anyway. I started this thread asking if 37300 was good for this -04 lux?

Like I said, I have never heard of such policy . And I have no reason to doubt what others are saying. But if I buy one out of state and have it truck here, i do not need to register the vehicle in that state as long as the vehicle will not be driven off the lot. This out of state dealership has done nothing violating this said policy. If I want to drive this vehicle anywhere in California, then I have to register it.

It sounds like a good price, assuming that there were no wrecks or problems and title is clean.
BTW, aggiehummer...er is a salesman at a Dallas, TX dealership... maybe he can answer your question. (he was the 5th post here, so I know he read this at one point... ) You might try to PM him...? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I think it is not somuch "all American" cars, but Hummers. GM has set rules for dealers, far as I know, so that they are not allowed to sell cars outside us. There are reasons for that. But it is not very hard to go around that, and it is not definately illegal. It's just a rule set by a manufacturer...

Of course it is possible to buy through companies like that.
But you can not buy straight from an authorized dealer.
And then of course theese brokers wants their piece of the cake. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I'd still talk to them. If you are looking to get a used one, you'll get the security that if your truck would fall apart you have somebody responsible for it. If you are looking to get new, they might be able negotiate better deals than you. I calculated the difference to be aroud $8,400 is MSRP and I'm looking to get something off that.
We can buy H2's in Finland for 94,000€ ($113,000). To get H2 over here with taxes and all the other crap that will take time and money it would be about 87,000€ ($101,000) if I did it myself. So if I can negotiate about 4,000€ off the MRSP I think 4,500€ would be reasonable premium for the dealer to make the deal with me. And I didn't have to worry about anything other than walking the circle in my living room and wait
