3. The payment procedure for a new or pre-owned quality car

• Payment 2: Payment of the car before it leaves the U.S. in a sea container *.
• Payment 3: import duty and VAT you pay after the arrival of the car in Europe.

For other countries, we can provide a German title ( KFZ Brief) which enables you to get a local registration or we can deliver the car with the original American tile or MSO.
