Reply With QuoteI just got a voicemail from my dealer. He's hoping to have my car included in the January allocation, it if is then that'd still be a 6 month wait.

Was it one they had in stock or a demo or something?

If it's a brand new car... then it cant be this price.

No ETA as of yet. Its a brand spaking new car not demo (coming from the factory).
Got it thorugh my work. Salary packaging company went around got me this good price.
They got about a quarter the price off all options and the base was discounted as well.

Well on roads are part of the price I pay per month out of my salary. Just saying they got me an awesome price and all of the options were dirt cheap.
*Sorry post was not meant to mislead anyone. Just stating they got me a good bargin*
If you look at it I didnt pay any dealer delivery. And my Rego+CTP is only 470.00. Also don't know if I paid stamp duty?

I've looked at Salary Sacrificing for the Polo.
You have to understand that GST is excluded on the initial purchase price. You may get a discount and you will get a reduced dealer delivery. All up the discount and reduced dealer delivery were about equivalent to going in and haggling a discount on a private sale.
If I am not mistaken GST will need to be paid on the value of the car when you finish or end the lease and want to either keep the car or sell it privately.
Add the FBT liability, ongoing management fees and insurance costs I could better myself, salary sacrificing made no sense to me.

Your correct in some instances. I compared paying finance, service, fuel Ect for a fiesta
This is a 19k car. Per week it's the same price to package the More expensive polo.
Definitely coming out on top in the lease. If you sell the car for more than the residual you keep any profits. Tax Free

Novate leasing/salary sacrificing is good for people on a high salary (to bring their taxable income down) or those on low salary who dont have the finances to buy a car. ongoing mgmnt fees are minimal ($5-10) a month, insurance is same (you can insure with your preferred insurance and claime it back) or opt for their insurance which usually covers the finance part of it as well. I think if you novate for 1 or 2 years you should come ahead or even , 1 year lease is the most benefiting . Each persons circumstances would determine one way or the other.

I don't end up paying any lease mgmt fees. It's all free. I'm leasing for 2 years. Deff coming out ahead. Especially at the price I'm paying for a fully optioned car.
And in my case to insure a basic car is over 2k a year (due to age)
Under a lease it's only 1k
