G20 BMW 3-Series Forum - View Single Post - How much is it to import a vehicle not sold in the US?

I always liked hatchbacks, but the Mercedes-AMG A45 or BMW 1 Series have never been sold in the US. And now hatchbacks are a dying breed here, but they fit my style and personality. One of these would have been my car of choice, but I got an X3 instead which is not really that close to a hatch.

I'm in Seattle, and I know that some Mercedes hatchbacks are available just over the boarder in Canada. I am wondering if there is a way to import brand new cars from Canada or elsewhere that are not sold in the US? I'm guessing it would be quite expensive with more taxes attached.
