How bout Luxury car tax? Not sure when it applies but as I believe it is a fair %. Somewhere around high 40′s to low 50′s %.

Give me a break what a rip off you can pick one of these up brand new for under $40,000 in the states and a fully optioned one won’t get over $60,000 but these clowns are looking for a minimum of $129,000? The US dollar is one for one you rip off pricks, making enough money on them you think? Tell me where the other $70,000 has gone??

Why can you buy one of these Camaros in the US for <40,000, but here it costs 130,000. Does it really cost 90-100,000 to import and convert.

Just came back from the States after driving one of these for two weeks. It is FREAKIN SWEET! And I’m more of a Ford man. I would buy one of these in a heartbeat. We had the V6, which still has 227kW, the LT model, which is worth around $25K. This would suit me down to the ground, damn the LHD rules!

This is a very well sorted car, you can see the Australian influence. Love this car, never thought I would like a GM product.

Ha ha. You have never imported a car before? Performax pricing is well in line with other companies such as AVS in Melb, and they do a far superior job. I know, I had a ‘vette converted with them.

I also know, since I have had a ‘vette converted with them, that you can purchase your own car and simply have them convert it.

You need to take into account the exchange rate, the shipping and the mass of government taxes as well as the fact, yes, funnily enough they do need to make a profit!

Also to those saying why pay that much when you can get XYZ for less – thats not the point – its like with ‘vettes and ‘stangs – you dont WANT what every man and his dog and every young bloke with a hefty loan out there has!

Shipping and conversion costs plus hefty tax. A LHD Commodore (Pontiac G8) is completely built here, shipped out but sold less in America compared to the equivalent sh!t here. Go figure.
