Did that $52k include dealer markup? Pretty sure they top out around $40K fully-loaded.

- heleninboodler 3y agoNot that I recall, but it did have a lot of what I'd consider "above-and-beyond" extras, like a $400 console safe and powered moon roof (oh and lol, it was red!). Plus the $52k included all the seattle local charges like insane registration and sales tax, so those shouldn't really be counted.
- dangus 3y agoJust as a note, "insane" registrations and sales tax are not "insane." Driving a vehicle has negative costs on society that neither the owner of the vehicle nor the producer pay for, and fuel taxes do not fully cover these costs. Seattle/Washington charges you money based on the weight of your vehicle, which is reasonable since weight is the primary driver of road wear. A lighter vehicle costs the city and state less money in maintenance. Sales tax in Seattle is also relatively typical for a city, and applies to every product you buy. It has a very similar sales tax rate to cities like Nashville, Memphis, Phoenix, and New Orleans.
