Seaports and Airports

At seaports and airports, vehicles must either be delivered to the exporting carrier’s facility at the port of exportation, or be presented with all required documentation directly to U.S. Customs per local port guidelines. In either case, the required documentation must be presented to Customs a minimum of 72 hours before the intended exportation. This documentation can be processed only at the actual port of exportation. In ports that require the vehicle to be delivered to the exporting carrier before the documents are presented to Customs, the carrier must issue a document that acknowledges its possession of the vehicle and contains information that identifies the vehicle. This document must be included with those presented to Customs.

If a vehicle has been delivered to the exporting carrier and is in the process of being exported, the carrier is required to notify the appropriate Customs inspector if the exporter attempts to cancel the vehicle export process and retrieve the vehicle. The Customs inspector will determine whether a physical inspection is necessary.

Land Border Ports


At land border ports, the required documentation must be presented to Customs at least 72 hours before export. This documentation can be processed only at the actual port of exportation of the vehicle. At the time of export, the vehicle must be presented to Customs at the port, along with the authenticated documentation to verify compliance with the 72-hour requirement. The vehicle must be easily accessible so that the public VIN (viewable on the dashboard) and other identifying numbers, including confidential numbers, can be verified. If vehicles are containerized or otherwise inaccessible, Customs may require that they be devanned at the shipper’s expense.

Every car or truck since the 1981 model year has a unique 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) filled with important details, ranging from its engine type to where it was built. The VIN is like a car's Social Security number. You need it when you register your car, buy insurance and bring it in for repairs (so the shop can order the right parts). The police will use it to identify your vehicle if it's stolen. Finally, if you are shopping for a used car, you'll need its VIN to run a vehicle history report.

VINs have been used by American automakers since 1954, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, but for years, there was no standardization so they were extremely difficult to decipher. Things are much easier now, but you still need to know the format in order to make sense of those 17 numbers.

Where To Find the VIN
You can find a car's VIN in three major locations: on the driver-side doorjamb, on the firewall in the engine bay and beneath the windshield on the driver side.

2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
It's no great surprise that Mercedes chose to unveil the tenth generation of its globally important E-Class sedan in Detroit. In the US, the car is the very model of the mid-level executive express; in Germany, it's the taxicab you grab at the Frankfurt airport. The new shape is a lovely expansion of the acclaimed C-Class sedan's gentle curves; compared with the outgoing E, the 2017 model is 1.7 inches longer overall, with a 2.6-inch-longer wheelbase. The interior is a jaw-dropper, more Maybach than Mercedes, with hide-wrapped surfaces, gleaming wood and metal accents, and two gorgeous displays for the virtual gauge cluster and the cutting-edge infotainment system. The E-Class arrives in the US later this year a turbocharged 2-litre in-line four-cylinder engine producing 241 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque, matched to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Needless to say, other engine options will follow in short order, including a gasoline-electric hybrid, a twin-turbo V6, and a fearsome AMG twin-turbo V8. And it won't be long before the handsome sedan is joined by wagon, coupe and convertible body styles. Study hard, kids.

Used cars in USA for export: How to ship them to Nigeria?

Nigeria is a country interested in cars. Since most people in the country prefer to buy used cars, they find the automobile market of USA a great source for fulfilling their desires. After all, USA enjoys the top ranked status in manufacturing and selling cars (both new & old). And with the growth of technology and availability on internet, it has become very convenient to buy or sell vehicles online.

If you have invested in used cars in USA for export to Nigeria, then you will have to be careful with how you proceed. There are strict legal norms that need to be perused. You cannot shrink away from them as that would be unlawful. The port authorities carry out certain formalities and ask for specific papers in order to verify your authentic claim to the vehicle. For instance, if you have stolen the car and are exporting it out of the country, then you won’t be able to produce the right documents. So, paper-filing and such formalities form the crux of exporting a car out of USA.

Thereafter, you will have to get the car shipped by placing it on an ocean liner. A car carrier is preferable since it is designed especially for this purpose. In order to stick to the legal procedures and to ship the vehicle safely, it is crucial to get in touch with the best shipper. Some dealers also stock used cars and sell them to you along with shipping.

Selling a car is no longer a hard task. Now with internet portals taking birth every other day, it has become a child’s play to find takers for your old cars. But then most people would like to sell their car at a good price. It doesn’t make sense to dispose of your vehicles just for the sake of disposing them. People are buying used cars in large numbers. There is no denying this fact. The market for used vehicles Nigeria has seen an astronomic rise. So, a lot of people are now more interested in buying a second hand car over a new one.

Despite the fact that women have defended their reputation as a driver for a long period of time, there are still quite a few men who are ready at any time to “measure bumpers” with a woman, as they say. It happens because men is often behave inappropriately on the road, especially if they behind the female driver.

If a woman has admitted to some slip and complicated traffic situation, the men begin to do the unexpected, sometimes frightening maneuvers and try to squeeze the lady to the side, in the truest sense of this word. But when the same mistake is committed by men in the worst case, he will be cursed and that’s all.

Such accusations against women drivers are very aggressive, and often completely unfounded, because these attacks are not prove that women cannot handle the vehicle.

When you are visiting a website with thousands of cars you might freak out and won’t continue to search for a car that actually may cost less and be exactly what you are looking for. So we would suggest to answer “Yes” to 3 critical questions.

Are you logged on to the website?

Our clients often are not able to see a huge part of the inventory because they forgot to log in to their profile. Too many of them even do not think about it, so most listings with prices are not available for them. As a result, their search journey is over and unsuccessful and good deals are purchased by smarter shoppers.

Have you adjusted your search Setting?

For the first time online shoppers it might be unclear, but it is very important to adjust your search tabs to find the car that you are exactly looking for. Take a look on a website Search page, you have over 20 different tools to narrow search results and got a ride that you will enjoy. keep in mind that you can always ask for assistance in a Live chat , email or drop a call.

Know what you are looking for?

Funny or not, but if you do not know what you are looking for, it will be extremely hard to find your ideal car. Take a look at your friends cars, think about how would you use your car, how many passengers will you drive on regular basis and to what distance. Check insurance prices with Insurance companies and decide on your Make and Model.

Perhaps you’ve noticed that often people who have time to drive a car for a whole day do a lot more than those who have not yet got behind the wheel. And to be honest it’s not because with car it is much faster to get to work, take back children to the kindergarten (Read more details How to keep your child safe while driving), go shopping, and certainly it significantly helps in farming.It’s because the behavior of drivers. Surely you’ve noticed that a good driver – is first and foremost a reliable, tactful and punctual person. And of course attentive. They are attentive not only on the road, but also to their loved ones. That’s right.As a rule, the best drivers are people aged 30-50 years. Up to thirty many of them have wind plays in their head. After fifty professional quality deteriorates – attention, reaction time, vision, fatigue increases.The average age (30-50 years), so the most optimum, while the drivers have time to accumulate the experience of driving at least 5 years. And it’s true. You can spend the same parallel in life too. Age also makes a difference. It’s the best age to fulfill your potential, to start a family.

Shopping for a $5,000 car isn't plumbing the bottom of the market, but it's pretty close. Unlike the search for newer used vehicles, the emphasis here is on correctly assessing the mechanical condition of the car: Some cars advertised for $5,000 will be in terrible shape and not worth considering; others will have plenty of years of service left. It's up to you to tell the difference. While there are no guarantees of how long the car could run without requiring major repairs, using vehicle history reports and getting a pre-purchase inspection can speed the search and help you find a gem.

2017 Chrysler Pacifica and Pacifica Hybrid
Chrysler invented the minivan, they tell us. Or maybe it was just the term "minivan" they invented. Either way, this is a segment of the market that the company has no intention of evacuating. The new Chrysler Pacifica and Pacifica Hybrid arrive to displace the venerable Town & Country and do battle with Honda's suburban darling, the Odyssey. The vans roll with fresh style and piles of trick features, including a three-panel sunroof, an on-board vacuum and a pair of 10in high-def touchscreen displays for the rear-seat entertainment system. A 268hp gasoline V6 is the standard engine; the plug-in Hybrid model adds an electric motor and a pack of lithium-ion cells, allowing the van to cruise for 30 miles on battery power alone.

2017 Infiniti Q60
Its style is busier than that of the outgoing G37 Coupe, but Infiniti's new G60 coupe is a knockout nonetheless — lower and wider than the svelte G37, and tantalisingly close to the acclaimed Q60 Concept from 2015. In the US, the 2017 Q60's top engine (one of three) is a twin-turbo 3-litre V6 producing a healthy 400 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque. It's matched only (yes, only) to a seven-speed automatic transmission; the sweet six-speed manual is gone. Rear-wheel drive is standard, but Infiniti's excellent, rear-biased all-wheel drive system is available. The interior is suitably stylish, with optional carbon fibre trim and a 13-speaker Bose Performance Series audio system. Is this the star of the Detroit show?

So how to create an ad properly?

If you want your car to be sold quickly you must first of all write a good ad.

In describing mandatory define the brand, year, color, model, type and value of the car. These characteristics are the main that will interest applicants at first;
Price. Before you set a price check a few ads of similar vehicles;
Think about the advantages of your car. It depends on the final price. It is said that the high price may scare potential buyers. Therefore objectively evaluate your car;
Do not forget about the photos. According to statistics, the goods with attached photos have been sold much faster than products without a photo. Of course, the images must be of good quality.

If your wealth is meager or if you are reluctant to make a heavy investment on a new car, then there is still an option open before you. You can buy an old car and reap several of its benefits. USA puts up used cars for sale on both online websites and offsite auctions.

Internet has made it possible for even the foreigners to buy them and get them shipped.


Here are 5 advantages of buying a used car:

Low price tag: Old cars come with low price tag. Lower price is an indication of their age. Their market value has fallen because they are of 2nd hand in nature. But in no way does it imply that the car has any inner flaw (though it is advisable to buy from a good dealer who will ensure that the vehicle is in good state).
Low sales tax: These cars have lower market value and so they invite lower sales tax. Thus, while getting them exported to foreign countries, you won’t have to bear a heavy monetary burden.
Low fees: The fees that one has to way for registration and licensing are comparatively lower too.
Less depreciation: Used cars for sale are old and do not depreciate at a high rate since they have already been used for the 1st year.
Better investment: Investing in old vehicles is always a better option since the risk is low and one can negotiate strongly with the dealers.

Car healthcare
Just try to imagine that your car is a human body, and you will come to the idea that it might require some sort of health care and prophylactic treatment.
The air filter is the lungs of your vehicle. You should replace a dirty air filter every six months, for it will improve your fuel economy.
Your car’s engine represents a heart muscle pumping the energy throughout your car. So be sure to change oil every 3 000 miles. It is better to use a good quality oil filter too.

If you take care of your car in the proper way, your car will show its gratitude with years without heavy repairs .

Used cars in USA: Pros and cons of buying a car from an auction

There are various methods of buying a car these days. One does not necessarily have to walk into a showroom and pay the sky-rocketing price for a brand new car. People who cannot afford to invest outright in a new vehicle can pick up an old car from dealers, websites, and auction houses. There are several auction houses that supply used cars in USA.

There are various pros and cons involved if you buy from there. Let us make a quick analysis:

Pros:


Economic: Buying an old car from an auction is the best thing you can do for your wallet. After all, the reason why you are buying a used car is because you wish to save money. Therefore, it would be ideal to pick up a car from auction site since here you get them very cheap.
Guarantee of ownership: Auction houses and websites give you full guarantee about the ownership rights of the car. Thus, you will not fall into any legal trouble in the future and won’t have to suffer from any loss thereof.

Cons:


Auction fee: One minor con is that you may have to shell out an auction fee in order to take part in the proceedings. The amount is a nominal one. However, you may even avoid paying it by simply buying used cars in USA from an auction-export website.
Buy on the face of it: Since, you cannot test drive the car, you are buying it primarily on its face value. So, if you pick up a wrong car and bid for it and win the bid, then there is no turning back. Hence, it is best to buy from an auction website rather than directly from an auction.

Do you live in Nigeria and are you dreaming of owning a car? Well, the American market for used cars is just the place for you .There are several interesting and dependable sites that offer used cars in America for export.

Global economic meltdown has grossly affected the indigenous automobile industry in Nigeria. Moreover, lack of modern technology combined with dearth of favorable working conditions has dealt the final blow to the already sagging automobile sector. Individual plants had to be shut down owing to escalating manufacturing cost. Today, unavailability of premier brands in the few local showrooms makes car purchase an extremely difficult experience. Moreover, the taxes levied by the government add to the already exorbitant price. All these factors have eventually paved the way for importation of used American cars.

Auto restoration and salvaged autos for sale

People in general think that a salvaged automobile is only fit for junk yards. But the reality is something different. A car is sent to junk yard only if it is totally banged up and there is no chance of getting it back on the road. To be specific, we can say that if a vehicle is 80 percent or less damaged then it can be restored and put up under the label of salvaged autos for sale.

There are automobile restoration companies that buy wrecked vehicles from different parties at very cheap rates. They have their own team of restoration and auto repair workers who are experts in their field. They know how to restore a vehicle from its very scratch and make it seem like something brand new. These vehicles are then supplied for auto dealers at higher prices compared to the amount spent on them while they were bought from their real owners. These dealers in turn sell them under the title of salvaged autos for sale or used autos for sale.

The value of salvaged autos are added at each stage of their restoration but still when they reach the final customers, their value would be far low compared to new car prices.

Salvaged autos for sale should not be confused with used autos for sale. Salvaged autos are vehicles that are restored after a serious damage caused due to road accidents or fire. Prices of salvaged autos are generally lower than used autos.

Auto salvage- booming market!


In an age of instant change and gratification, is it any wonder that the market for auto salvage is booming? All the talk of the economy being in peril notwithstanding, people are still replacing their old cars with new ones almost at the drop of a hat. Call it avarice or sheer necessity but newer models of cars continually replacing the old ones are a regular feature in the average household and the auto salvage market is only too happy to cash onto it. For, one man’s discard is another one’s dream and if he can get it at a price which he can afford, why should he look a gift horse in the mouth?

He can now purchase a car which may have been hardly used from an auto salvage auction/site at the fraction of the original factory rate. This spells good news for those who have been hitherto unable to purchase a car due to financial limitations. The other main reason for the booming auto salvage market is that used cars are now offered in much better conditions as the manufacturing it has improved and cars now give more service and last longer.

The downside of the fluctuating economy has been that some people are being forced to tighten their belts and are opting for used cars from auto salvage sites rather than going in for outright new purchases. For the auto salvage market it is boom-time as people make a beeline for it to bag cars at amazing rates.

A few tips on auto salvage auction

Auto salvage auctions are quite popular among common car enthusiasts. It is one place where you get to buy cars as flashy as brand new at incredibly low prices. As the name indicates these auctions are held for salvaged autos or vehicles that have undergone restoration and refurbishment works.

Salvaged autos may not exhibit high performance and they also pose a high risk of breakdowns. For the same reason, the buyer has to be selective about his choice while buying from any auto salvage auction. Attending auto auctions held by state authorities or police is one sure way to secure reasonably performing vehicles at subsidized rates. At such auctions you would get to buy luxury vehicles at low prices because such vehicles are usually seized and salvaged by the authorities from criminals and culprits.

Before buying research about suitable auto salvage auction in your town. You will get information on such auctions from newspapers and internet. Most of the auction dealers offer their vehicles for a preview so that interested buyers can examine the vehicle well in advance. Make sure that you attend such previews. At such previews you would get to know whether a particular vehicle was subject to thorough inspection following quality restoration services. You can check with the dealers for appropriate certifications and insurance papers.

It would be useful if you plan your budget and payment method before placing the bids blindly. Also remember to try and arrive in time for any auto salvage auction.

Benefits of online auto auction


There are several online auto auction websites popular among the internet marketing circles. EBay motors is one such popular platform where thousands of buyers and sellers exchange used autos like cars, motorcycles, trucks, vans, boats etc.

These online auto auction platforms were developed to bring people located at different corners of the earth together at one place for selling their products at fair prices.

Online auto auction has its own list of pros and cons. Such auctions facilitate easy bidding. You can offer your bid at the click of your mouse button and wait for the results. Online auctions are usually open for weeks or even months. The time gap allows more people to enter the auction and offer their bids. In most of the cases, the duration of the auction is decided by the seller as per his needs. If the seller wants to sell off his vehicle at the earliest then he can end the auction within a day itself.

Not all are equally accustomed to online buying. Only those who are interested in online shopping activities would enter an online auto auction. In case of online auctions there is less competition compared to real auctions which are more popular and are attended by extravagant buyers. In other words, you have a good chance of buying autos at low prices because the bids wouldn’t be much high.

Although, online auto auction is simple and convenient, there is no guarantee about the vehicles sold therein. Through internet it is hard to ensure the credibility of the seller. This can cause unexpected troubles so one has to be careful while dealing online.
