Default bringing a car from canada to US..Fees and Taxes??

If I buy a car in Canada and bring it back to the US what kind of fees,customs,taxes can I plan on in advance? Import duty?

Just how big of a pain are we talking about? Title transfer to a US State as well.

Thanks...

If it was originally manufactured in the US there will be no inport duties or taxes. as this willbe US goods being returned.

Here's the official NHTSA webpage about importing cars from Canada:

Here's another page, with an individual's experience in importing cars:
