The VAT and taxes are a percentage based on the price of the unregistered vehicle when bought from the manufacturer by the dealer so yeah - all vehicles are affected by that. I actually got a quote on a 2020 GT500 but that would hit $270.000 - $300.000 depending on if I wanted the Carbon Trackpack or not... That's not gonna happen!

And a fun fact to note... Danish dealers (no matter the brand) buys the unregistered vehicles cheaper than any other dealers in the world due to the VAT and taxes being added afterwards - that results in a lot of new vehicles being shipped to Denmark gets shipped back to country of origin since it is cheaper for the dealers there to buy it from Danish dealers than the manufacturer... the only rule is they have to be on Danish soil... We see a lot of vehicles just gets put off on the lot... stays there for a couple of days and then gets picked up and shipped back :facepalm:
How does that affect the resale value, is that money completely lost? Jeepers!

I find it useless and just another piece of plastic in the way when working under the hood. Remove the 10mm nut on the firewall, place a cap on the intake tube nipple, Plug or tape the hole in the firewall, and put this piece of trash on the shelf until trade in time.

For anyone interested I know a lot of us have had trouble with the stupid nut on the firewall. I came across a Ford shop manual that showed how to remove the sound tube. Evidentially there is an access panel behind the fender liner. I just ended up pulling mine out with force but in case someone wants to know here it is.

I had a Roush Kit installed and I'm wondering if the sound tube was left on by the speed shop. Only thing I can think of that allows me to hear so much intake noise (when boost gets higher) but I thought they were removed with the intake kit that comes with the kit

Open up the engine bay and take a look. It’s huge so you can’t miss it.
