WA are more expensive because it has a higher tax on vehicles. Every time I go to a dealer they always ask if I live around here. I never ask them why but I assume there might be some sort of restriction, meaning they can't sell it to you if you don't live in the area. So when I sign my contract I had to prove I live in the area. Might ask my dealer.

I know about 5 years ago or more, people from WA were buying cars from Eastern States and trucking them over and then I read they are stopping that from happening because the dealership was complaining about losing money. Not sure if it went through but I really think it did. Did anyone bought a car from EST and truck it to WA recently?

Trucking your vehicle from NSW to WA is about $1000 3 years ago this is on my small car. They are not responsible from rocks hitting the car so you will have to insure it for the journey. You can transport it on a container, but the price are obviously more expensive.
