Interesting. I always thought there was also a tax on the size (displacement) of engine used (one reason for Audi and Volvo to get so heavy into turbos). I also always thought that there were more options in the EU if you wanted a car.
And not all cars are cheaper here. I'm sure a 1993 Land Rover Defender 110 V8 wouldn't sell for $30,000 to $60,000 over there. Even '95-'97 Defender 90's sell in the $30,000 to $40,000 range here.

)since the German cars are cheap in US we have a lot of overseas imports here.... like half of the Porsche Cayenes are imported back from the US and they are wayyyyyyyyyyyyy cheaper than the local sale ones

taxes based on size of the engine are only in a few countries.... not in WEster Europe....Germany, France, Czech Rep.... we are all fine as to engine size )
since the German cars are cheap in US we have a lot of overseas imports here.... like half of the Porsche Cayenes are imported back from the US and they are wayyyyyyyyyyyyy cheaper than the local sale ones

No prob Peter , but in Belgium it is the cc3 what matters and also the bhp, and with reducing mine by BWM I gained 2500? onyl 211bhp now and oem is 218bhp
(but we have the cure for all: remapping is comming this Spring) True otherwise the reg wud be 5000?. Also the yearly tax is based on that. Luxury cars however for some reasons are cheaper here that in other parts of WE.
some you can buy

the yellow is nice
But M is a bit diff. my friend just died in one fell of the bridge only a piece of the hood was kept all the rest RIP in fire. Sad but true. just be careful guys always.but agree in the US they are cheaper, which is insane as they are produced from here some 100kms and it is EU car, then we have bigger taxes, and finally cost more...
