Importing a car from China to the US involves significant costs beyond the car's price, including ocean freight (around $1,000-$3,000+), ~2.5-3% duty for vehicles (plus potentially 25% for trucks/SUVs), CBP fees, ISF/AMS filings, insurance, and domestic transport, with estimates often landing in the multi-thousand dollar range ( $2,750 - $3,350+ just for shared container shipping, plus duties/fees). The biggest hurdle is often the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS), as most Chinese cars aren't compliant, requiring expensive modifications or falling under rare exceptions (like 25+ year old classics or specific modifications).

The cheapest way to ship a car internationally is generally Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where cars drive onto and off the ship, costing around $900-$2,500+ depending on destination, as it avoids packaging and crane costs. For more protection, Shared Container shipping (grouping cars) is the next cheapest, while booking through platforms like Shiply or using companies with price matching, like SGT Auto Transport or Sherpa, can also find competitive rates.
