Okay, well I've been looking around a bit, and I found an 06 GT, with 19000kms on it, and registration. The interior is leather.

Is it worth it?

$95 k is way too rich for me but I'd like the car

[Babii C]

it is really rich for me too lol! but would that price be worth it, the American members I've spoken to say its overpriced, (because the exchange rate makes it $74k US.) So I'm really into getting it, but the price is just HUUUGE!

[krankieone]

what are they worth in the USA ? plus freight plus customs ,import duty,GST and $20K+ for compliance RHD conversion

does that help???

well apparently, they are worth anything from $20-35k in the US. I think I'm just going to give this one a miss.

You cannot buy and bring into the country a new GT unless it is a private import. Noone will give you a compliance in Australia.
SO if you decide to bring a car as a private import here is the breakdown of the price for 07 Mustang GT:
Well opioned car, 18" wheels, leather etc, GT appearance pack etc. - $35.000 US (AU$45000).
You have to insure it for 1 year and register it (total US$2000.00 - AU$2500.00). Shipping to Australia and all necessary paperwork - $AU4000.00. GST and tax - about AU$10.000. Conversion to the RHD
- don't think can get a good one for under AU$30000.
So:
AU45K + AU$2.5K + AU$4K + AU$10K + AU$30K = AU$91.500
And this price is just to break even!!! This is still better than AU$135K that most of Australian authorized importers are asking.
So anythink around AU$100K for a 07GT new or even 06 GT is a great price.

Oh, at this rate its going to cost me so so much. I saw a newer mustang here the other day (converted), I wish it weren't so damn expensive.

I have a BLACK/BLACK 2005 Mustang GT with lots of extras including a K&N Air Charger (extra 18HP), Flowmaster American Thunder Exhaust (extra 25HP), Tinted Windows, 20" Chrome Wheels, Starter Button, Colgan Crabon Fiber Style Car Bra and Sequential Tail Lights. It has a cloth Interior. It is IMMACULATE with 22,000 'babied' miles. I have photos if you wish to see.

I am also an Australian living in Los Angeles and would consider selling you my car landed in Melbourne for US$55,000. You would be responsible for any duties, taxes and conversion costs once it arrives.

If you have a car dealer friend who might lend you dealer plates you can drive it LHD for a while.

Just a thought.

Cheers
