Hello from Austria

Hi,

I am a car enthusiast from Tyrol in Austria / Europe. I bought the 6th gen camaro in 2016 and I am still the only one in Austria. That mainly has two reasons: Costs and costs:
- in Austria we have a tax on a tax called NOVA. For the SS you need to pay 40% of its main price extra to the goverment. This made the car 83 000€.
- the Camaro - along with the Corvette - is the most expansive car here regarding yearly costs. Without insurance one has to pay almost 6000€ yearly taxes.
Still, driving this car makes forget everything. At least there is one thing that Austrians can do: building perfect roads.
Next to the Camaro I have an Alfa Stelvio for winter. I often switch cars with my brother, he owns an Alfa Romeo Giulia QV and an Alfa 4C.
Best thing is: The Camaro is almost unknown here, it is an exot I never saw until I rent one on holidays in the US. From that moment on I knew that I need that car.
