I cannot remember where it is located on the Internet, but I do remember it explaining that any and all goods imported as part of your settlement as a new immigrant are not taxed, including the importation of your personal vehicle. However, you will most likely need to pay for any applicable modifications that need to be performed as well as registration fees, A/C fees if applicable, etc.

As long as you list your vehicle(s) on either the "goods declaration" or "goods to follow" forms as part of your settlement as an immigrant, it is not taxed or duties applied.

Except the OP hasn't owned the vehicle previously (obviously if it is in the US) so he will probably be paying taxes and duties on the blue book price.
