Default Dollars up, what can we buy from the USA? This looks great!..

You cant get anything like that for double the price here! What does it cost to import something like a boat? hmm

Only $14500

Yeah with the cars I think its a bit trickier than that. I seem to recall something about some govt charges that add up, must be worth it still plenty doing it.

Id probably look for a Cougar.
Or one of those XR looking 2 doors

I do love the conversion rate, I bought something much smaller though lol. I got Dead Rising 2 (video game) brand new through Steam for only $41 Aussie, cheapest price to buy it here is around $90 from JB Hifi
