they charge tax like 300% in vietnam and many folks have 7 series BMW and Ferrari and they all pay cash. Don't know where they got the $ from :-) oh yeah, they can't drive fast in Vietnam :-)

Haha,things are not so terrible as you said.But our tax a little higher is ture.Only cars like LS460,LX570 ,the tax will be about a little higher.My IS250 is about 10%.My car cost me about US$60000(include the car,FlyAudio,tax,insurence and licence).

That's not as brutal as in Thailand. Import Car tax is around 200%.

I paid around USD 100,000 for an IS250. That's life here.
