edspaged2 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 im kinda upset the US will be getting this GTR, i always thought the older ones were exclusive. yeah, that annoys me as well. ah well, at least we'll be able to get ALL models, whereas they have only really got the R35 Australia charge a shitload on import tax eh. we get ripped big time. Australia charge so much so as to protect the local industry.

Australia charge so much so as to protect the local industry. Import duty is not the problem mate as it is only 10% now and it will go to 5% sometime in future, just like it is on 4WDS and commercials. Luxury tax is the one as it is 25% and that is levied an all cars regardless if they are made here or O/S .

scandyflick Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 i got bored. and i figured the answer was somewhat self explanitory anyways. its all about economy, marketability, and tax. the us, europe, etc, will have a larger potential market for the new gtr, australia has a smaller market. australia has massive amounts of tax, on top of tax, on top of tax. america and europe, dont. simple really.

gts-4 dreamer Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 (edited) higher priced here due to the buyers they will attract ? not to mention the governing body wants the general populace to drive the slowest vehicles possible reducing road fatalities etc ?

cefiro Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Even with import duties LCT etc its still way above what it should be, i think nissan have missed the boat and its not going to be as popular as they think it should have been done for under 100k. Prob also the fact that the 350z sits too close to it, another car which we pay too much for. Fark the local industries, they should build a product which doesnt need to be bolstered by the government. There is no real great trade in the car industries, people have ruined it.
