Need opinion. I am moving to Canada next year...(m)
Should I just bring my S4 (MY 01) or sell it and buy another one over there? I really want avant and mine is now a sedan.
How is the market for S4 (B5) over there? I will be in Toronto.
Thanks in advance.

i'd personally sell myself
it's a hassle to convert a car over to cnd spec...and then a hassle when it comes to selling or insuring it
besides...you can get that avant you want so badly

B5-A4/S4 Avants were never sold in Canada, because..
Audi and VW felt that A4/S4 avants were too similar to Passat wagons and wouldn't sell well at all, hence they never went through the necessary bumper crash tests for the Canadian market.
Because of that, I don't believer you can register an US-spec B5 avants here in Canada. Converting your B5 sedan maybe easier since it's was sold in Canada, I believe all you need is to add DRL and maybe switch out the instrument cluster.

Not in Canada because of crash test requirements
I don't think you can even bring the avant to Canada because of this. If I recall correctly, it failed the rear end collision test requirements.

Check out RIV.ca, it will tell you what you need to know about importing
a vehicle from the US. I know that the 01 S4 can not be imported into Canada from the US, but special conditions may apply to you if you are a US citizen bringing your own vehicle.
I would check out the website first.
