Quote:
The $44,990 price is for the four-cylinder version of the new Mustang; the V8 that most buyers will want is $54,990 plus on-road costs.
In both cases Australians are paying about $20,000 more than buyers in the US, where the four-cylinder is listed for sale on the Ford website from $25,300 and the V8 from $32,300.
The US prices don't include state taxes and dealer delivery fees but even taking those into account there is still a large gap.
All of the car manufacturers are pulling out of Oz because of the high cost of local labour...but...
* The pontiac G-8, MADE in Australia dropped in price by nearly 1/3 when the very same car, made with expensive aussie labour was boated to the US.
* Toyota MD got very defensive when asked why a Camry was $30K+ (Expensive Australian Labour)...so now that they are being made in cheap labour countries they will drop to $20 ??? (Errm, no, there are other factors at play as well) - KY Jelly
