perth-135i?

Wow, Dave, do you like being raped in the backdoor much? :p

I can never justify paying so much money and getting fuck all in return. Yep, sure, great performance, but what else? It'll have zero room, BMWs never do (even the 5series are useless for room in the back)

You pay for the badge unfortunately, and thats about all.

Have a chat to rob (prototype) he just spent the weekend driving one around a race track for the release.

[QUOTE=Kato]Sigh,

Just reading on the US forums about the 335... and then they post how much they paid for one. Makes me sad at how much extra we have to pay for the same item.

Edit... Now I read they get a 335xi - AWD loving... extra sigh.

USA: 335i = $38,900 (+ all the extras/on roads I guess). Converted to Australian = $42,000

AUS: 335i = $108,900 (+ all the extras/on roads)

Thats a difference of $67,000. Now luxury car tax, and all the other stuff can't add up to that much?[/QUOTE]

I gave up along time ago on this issue guys. My brother just bought the fully optioned Pontiac G8 (SSV) for under US $32K. I gave up trying to explain to members of nasioc, legactygt,ect how and why cars cost so much here. I my explanation is no something along of the lines of...you pay to play here in Oz but we have some good toys.
