I bought my H3 at a small Dealer, who imports the Cars directly from the US. This way is much less expensive, than buying at the official Dealer/Importer. But I still have to pay ~ 40,000. Euro for my H3, which is ~50,000. US$ ! It is so expensive, because of freight, Customs, Tax and the german laws to make it street legal. (BTW, we have the Euro Currency).

I thought of buying it during my vacation, but I would have to pay the local Tax at the dealer, which makes it to expensiv. I talked to a Hummer salesman last december in Miami (University Drive?), he said, this is to protect the german importer...

seriously considering that....

But, whats the "Hummer key fob"??

and why should I keep the "funny french car"? Never thought a Hummer owner would say that

First off you can get the blow up doll from a lot of guys on this forum...

and

Keep the french funny car just so you can say the french did do 1 thing right

Alot of foreign H3'S will still made in US. Especially the Left Hand Drive. I would imagine those built in S.A. will have a pretty big price tag as 95% of parts are shipped there from the USA to Canada to S.A. Plus they are looking at only building 13,000 per year in South Africa.

Welcome! What's your cost in U.S. dollars?

If Germans are buying H3's, that's a huge compliment to Hummer.

Be forewarned it's not German engineering but it's the best we could do.
It will get you lots of looks over there and take you places your other vehicles could only dream of.

Welcome! and stay with this forum, we'll be glad to help you out any time.

Welcome from another european Hummer driver. I'm from Belgium and drive an H2. They're very very rare over here. It's my way of representing the USA and it's a GREAT vehicle to drive.
