that's because Japan and the US have a deal. Both the US and Japan make cars and both import/export cars, both offet the taxes.
If the US taxes japanese cars high, then Japan retaliates and taxes US cars high. So both countries have a deal and tax each other very little. |

The import taxes in Puerto Rico makes the touring sport just short of $50K.

However in Belgium you have to pay a one time tax to get it on the road, which is 5k euro for a 370Z. you could compare the BPM with the tax they have in belgium, its still alot cheaper. But not calculated in the price at the dealer. Besides that you have your normal yearly tax ofcourse which is 1500 euro in Belgium for the 370z. However I drive my Z alot cheaper in Belgium as I would in Holland. |

Did you see the youtube that posted AK? The 370Z was designed in the US. In addition many Japaness cars are manufactured right here in the United States.
Plus the US and Japan has had a long business partnership in the automobile field. Quote:

The US has the largest demand for cars, fuel and almost everything else in the world, so it’s the volume that helps to drive the price down.
Taxes are definitely a part of it but I think it's more to do with the total volume of the order. It’s just like getting a discount for buying in bulk... In Australia we get shafted for everything.
