[Aus content] Supercar d'Elegance

[walkie86]

w**ky name, nice cars! Small, invite-only show in Sydney today for people to mingle and show off their flash cars. My Dad got an invite to display his yellow Evora. There was some serious metal on display and it was amazing to see them up very close and personal. I can't decide if my favourite was the white Aventador, the white LP670-SV or the yellow Zonda...

Why were they getting painted lol?

Not entirely sure. They just walked around a bit after they were done but not sure what the end result was! The in red had Ferrari logos on her. I think it was just something for all the blokes to look at while sipping the beers...

 

[Knuckles]

Lol fair dos, any more of the blonde?

Very nice cars.

How much is the import tax for some of these cars,ive heard some are shockingly high

 

[walkie86]

Luxury car tax in Aus is 33% and applies once a vehicle costs over $57k AUD. As an example a fully optioned Megane 250 comes in at around $53k...

A Goods and Services Tax also applies of 10%.

So, an M3 is ~$180k, a new 911 ~$250k, a 458 ~$600k and a Phantom ~$1 mill...

Mental tax. Did those people come from all over OZ? That's a metal supercar meet!

 

[walkie86]

^ nah, just from around Sydney. There's some minted people around though!

There're a lot of flash cars over in Perth too (other side of the country) as plenty have made some serious coin from the mining boom over there.

Stupid tax. Its only there to give the local manufacturers a fighting chance

 

[GSKingsbury]
