$38,500 for the new Bullet versus $31,500 U.S. That (factoring in the
10% dollar difference) is over $10,000 or nearly 30%. Do they WANT to
lose another $15 BILLION???
This isn't the only vehicle, the Hybrid Escape is similarly overpriced.

Rich,

You live in the people's socialist republik of Canada, where all productive
working Canadians are forced to contribute to the well being of all the non
productive loafing Canadians.

That EXTRA cost is not being charged Canadians by the American car
manufactures!

Canada's Socialist "Surcharges" are the cause of your "overpriced" cars.
Now, accept it and pay your part or get off your whining loafing a.s and do
something about it.

This isn't Rocket Science Rich.

Last I knew the new Challenger is being made is Canada so does that mean we
should not buy it in the States? If the Canadians quit buying mustangs in
Canada the Ford will get the message and drop prices. The cost of doing
business in Canada is high however since taxes are high to pay for the
socialist programs such as free health care and really high VAT and things
of that nature.

40 years ago Canada was more or less like the US. But the government has
become corrupt with power dictating how and where and how much any one is
entitled to so that things can be "Free".

Les,
The people's socialist republik of Kanada's socialist taxing scheme doesn't
care where the items are made, everything is taxed...

Like I already replied to riches ignorant (Yes IGNORANT, if he had any
understanding of what was going here, he would feel stupid for posting what
he has about this) whining in an earlier post. A bottle of Finlandia
Vodka, produced and bottled in Finland, costs 4 times as much off the shelf
in "Socialist" Finland, than that same bottle of Finlandia Vodka, produced
and bottled in Finland, costs off the shelf in the good old USA. The USA
made Ford Mustang in Finland costs fully 4 times what it does at MSRP here
in the good old US of A. That is not Ford charging that difference, it the
"Socialist Taxes" added by Finland, an actual Socialist government.

Excuse me for butting in, but the government of my country is NOT
socialist. Just greedy :)

They tax us HARD, everywhere they can. Why? Because they can. Apparently
we are too lazy to change it, or too used to the benefits that our tax
money gets us. We can also afford it, it seems. If our people would get
up their a.ses and do something about it, they could.

The car (and fuel) taxes are ridiculously high, and a constant hot
topic, but they bring so much money into the government pocket that we
can't make sudden dramatic changes to it. We could reduce car tax down
to what it is in most other developed countries, but then the government
would make us pay as much for healthcare services as the USA, or turn
off our street lights at night. It would all be away from something
else, or we'd pay more for services and products that are now cheap.
(Ha, not by our standards, nothing is cheap to an average Finn).

I chose to bail out and move to Florida, where things that are important
to me personally, are better. (Car hobby is not penalized and taxed to
such insane extent as it is in Finland).

Many other things are way worse in the US. BUt it's the price I have to
pay to get what I want.

Jan
