Oh and I am referring to the Eco Cruze. My last 180 (one way) all I did was draft a truck about 80-120 feet back and got 51 mpg @ an average speed of 64 mph, and it rained for 60 of those miles.

The Fiesta itself is about 23-25K USD depending on options. You are looking at 2.5% in import tax, between 1500 - 4000 to ship and another 750 - 1500 in broker fees. (this is all approximate).

Then you have to factor in repair costs, because it will most likely not be under warranty, and even if they cover the labor you would have to pay to import replacement parts, which could take weeks.

There is just no way the car will ever be worth it.
