2025 ZR1 Canadian pricing estimate

[1st Vette]

Mabe that calculator is wrong because I tried it too and it gave the same result

If he is correct regarding the taxable amount then…….far far from within my budget .

The PST in BC is a sliding scale based on the purchase price…ranging from 7% on cheapest cars to 20% on cars 150k or more!!

Holy fork ! I guess that’s why it’s called “ Bring Cash “ …. So sadly the difference from Alberta is as large as I suspected.

To show how rediculous this really is….increasing the price of your car about 25k from $124999 to $150000 results in a $50k increase in purchase price after taxes….

Not to mention that this is after tax dollars being taxed . Something wrong with this picture .

BC seems to be the worse place to have nice cars

Would Ontario be the best place for car enthusiasts?

Thanks for clearing that up ... I really had no idea

So the PST rises incrementally with the purchase price ... more expensive the car ... the more PST you pay .... isnt that a luxury tax in itself ? ... then you have to pay a luxury tax ... then you have to pay GST

And the Canadian government will call you a criminal if you try to come back to Canada with an extra bottle of Vodka hidden under your front seat ...

Boys don’t forget adding in the highly likely dealer ADM and the multiplier effect it will have on the final sales price

This is so sad .... if your doing a deal at a stealership and it comes out to 55,001 you get dinged with an extra 1 % ..... then the wife pipes up and says she wants to add the automatic ass tickler as another option , it now brings the price to 56,001 you get ^%*^%^ with yet an extra 1% on top of that bringing your PST to now 9 % ... then it gets really stupid from there

Un &&^%$%^ real

Yes I bought my C8 in 2023 and it was a lot easier to keep the total below $125k for a SR. But I had to make a concerted effort to not get this or that if my total was going to go over….especially if it was something like carbon fiber that I could get later! But with the price increases in
2024, that went out the window…especially if you
wanted a convertible. If somebody wants and can get a ZR1….it would probably pay big time to move to Alberta for a year!

I was told $350k for a loaded ZR1 from my dealer.

But they are the best province
for scenic driving.
