My GT3 RS order is now placed, and I feel that deserves its own thread. Guarantee you that I will post pictures when it arrives Although I have ordered the car, I have not yet received a commission number. So you could argue that I technically haven´t ordered yet.
As I have mentioned in another thread, it is not me personally who ordered it. It's my friend who owns a early 918, but he doesn't wont a GT3 without a manual transmission. So he has given his allocation to me, so I will probably get one of the first cars.

Cars are as many know quite expensive in Norway. The car tax is approximately $ 110,000. In addition, we must pay 25% VAT. So in total I have to pay $ 160,000 in taxes. So the total price for my car is 2.85 million Norwegian kroner, or $ 361,000.

Okay...I'll never complain about Texas car tax again at 6.25% (and any trade goes against it).

That's probably just as expensive (if not cheaper) as it's gonna be over here.. Damn taxes.
Congrats on your build though, awesome looking car!
I guess that insurance doesn't come cheap in Norway?
It is not exactly cheap. But my impression is that insurance is not more expensive than in countries like Germany and the UK, although the cars are much more expensive in Norway.

Ouch Damn ...... I shouldn't be complaining about 8.7% sales tax.
Where would you drive that in Norway - I recall the high speed limit being 80km/h (lived there for 4 years in Stavanger/Bergen). Is there a track somewhere? Seems pointless.
