Can I bring a Canadian/American car to Mexico?
  U.S. and Canadian drivers who prefer to drive their own cars into Mexico can do so by presenting a valid driver's license, a major credit card (debit or check cards not accepted), presenting the proper paperwork (proof of ownership or leasing contract, proof of citizenship, tourist card, and a major credit card) at the border crossing, paying a permit fee, and posting a refundable guaranteed return deposit. It is a good idea to make extra copies of all the required documents and keep them in a safe place. The importation permit is valid for 180 days and allows multiple entries. When leaving Mexico for the final time, turn in the permit at the border and obtain a receipt. An importation permit is not needed if you are not driving beyond the 20- kilometer border zone. Auto insurance is not required but U.S. and Canadian auto policies are not valid in Mexico; if there is an auto accident, the driver will likely be jailed and the car impounded until the authorities can sort out the details. Mexican auto insurance can be purchased at the border or from companies online. Auto importation ‘ regulations are strictly enforced; if a car is found without the proper permit, it will be immediately confiscated. For full details on auto importation, goto the Consular Section of the Embassy of Mexico at http://portal.sre.gob.mx/was. Portions of the importation permit process can be completed online at www.banjercito.com.mx. There is a charge, and it can be applied to your Visa. You will need a certified copy of your car title. You will also need your passport and Mexican car insurance which you can obtain there as well as your drivers license. 100,00% of 5 voters found this FAQ useful, I found this FAQ  useful  not useful
