I've never been asked to see it. Probably never have to unless your importing for the first time or selling the car.

^probably wouldn't need it if you are selling the car locally. When I do an autoplan transfer of vehicle ownership for a BC registered car, it's not something that I look at.

i got it passed federal inspection today! very relieved that this is all over, it has been a nightmare dealing with honda for the past two weeks. all of the methods mentioned above did not work.

- honda of usa refused to help me, my car was deemed as a grey market vehicle

- honda of canada does not support canadians buying an american car

- dealerships in the us will only get a recall letter for you, nothing else

i need an insurance agent now! i think there was one on here (i don't remember who) i'll give you my business!!

thanks,

d
