    Each state has different tax laws so the retail price doesn't include sales tax.

    Wow! You also have income tax in that state, guess they have to pay those pensions somehow. Here in Texas the tax is 6.25% with no income tax but pretty hefty property tax. I rent my house from the state for $17k/yr even though I have no mortgage.

    Hey consider yourself lucky in Texas. I am in ILL.. The land of the crooked politicians and huge taxes. Sales tax is 9%. Income tax is 5% and I also rent my house from the state at 30K per year and I have no mortgage either. :)

    Gee I just cant believe this my income tax is around 45% Sales tax ( GST ) 10% then on top of that there is stamp duty on the car 4% and then luxury tax at 33%. You guys have it so so good , that's why you have so many cars going to the States.

    i followed the recommendation of an earlier post after my homelink would not work (2016 488 gtb).
    purchased a conversion bridge from amazon for $28, followed the instructions and in 5 minutes voila, everything worked.
    the homelink on the 488 is 3rd generation, I believe that homelink is now on their 5th generation, so if you have a newer garage door opener, it cannot communicate with the older generation homelink, hence the need for the compatibility bridge. hope this helps someone. cheers.

    That's depressing :(

    Hows this for a statistic,

    I paid more tax in one day than FORD, HOLDEN, MITSUBISHI and NISSAN did for the past 3 years ! This is why we pay so high taxes because all of the corporates don't pay any !!

    Yes, TDF Blu from LFSC. My wife's one constraint is no red cars. And that is without doubt my personal favorite blue.
