    Price differences for Toyota and Hyundai parts

    Hyundai Hyundai Advice Hyundai Accent Hyundai Accent Advice Hyundai Accent 2000
    ...

    An airconditioner compressor for a 2000 Hyundai Accent costs $620 in Australia yet the internet price delivered from the US is $179. The Toyota price for a V8 diesel fuel injector is $800 but Toyota New Zealand price is $220. Mack truck owners tell me they can import parts from the US for a third of the Australian price. Please tell the readers why Australian vehicle spare parts are so expensive.

    We're not about to defend the car companies but do the import prices include the same fees and taxes a factory operation charges, or the warehousing costs? Also, the much higher volumes in the giant US market allows companies to keep their margins down.
