Green Tax

my2008m3 · 03-29-2008, 11:27 AM

Since we are talking price gouging here.....in BC we pay a 10% PST for cars over 55grand....plus the 5%GST is a total of 15%.

Loaded M3 is over 100 grand.

Fun costs money.

Yahoo!! My dealer just called me and they admit they made an error. They are returning the $1200 Green Tax fee to me ASAP!! It should never have been charged.

but did you still have to pay the 1200 gas tax ?? i had too

Yes. There is an Ontario Gas Tax of $1200 that all Ontario buyers have to pay. It is based on the L/100KM for highway. Anything over 9.5 is subject to $1200 in Ontario and the M3 comes in at 9.7 highway.
