Need some help/advice regarding buying car from the states and trading in

Hey guys, i cant remember if i posted here, but a few months ago i was seriously considering trading in my FX for a g35 or STi but in the end i decided to keep my FX.

Recently, with the soaring Canadian dollar and the price of an STi, i think its time to change cars. I think i can get around $38-40,000 for my FX if i sold it here and ive been told a brand new STi in the states would come to around $32-33,000 OTD. i think financially i would be making a smart decision too.

My main questions are; is there a way i can find out how much i would get on my trade in without actually trading it in? if i don't get around $40K with taxes it might not make sense to do this.

Also, are there any companies that will help me with the paper work involved? when it comes to important things like this i would love the reassurance that everything will be taking care of and i wouldn't want my car stuck in the states due to some incorrect paper work ive done.

Finally, what do you think would happen with my insurance? im paying a bit over 5K a year so if i went to an STi do you think it would go up, stay the same or go down? the STi is a 4dr sedan and its value is a lot less than the FX which is an SUV...would it have any impacts on my insurance? granted the STi is well...an STi (race car? lol)

thanks everyone!
