Sydney's car market is the country's biggest and most competitive, which cuts both ways: plenty of dealer stock and private listings to choose from, but also sharper prices on popular models that can move quickly.

NSW costs to budget for beyond the refinance loan

Stamp duty. New South Wales charges motor vehicle duty at $3 per $100 of the vehicle's value up to $44,999. Above $45,000 it is $1,350 plus $5 per $100 over that threshold, and only the excess is charged at the higher rate. On a $40,000 car that works out to $1,200 in duty.

Registration and CTP. NSW registration is an $84 base fee plus a motor vehicle tax set by vehicle weight (about $391 a year for a typical mid-size car). CTP insurance, the green slip, is separate in NSW: you buy it from a licensed insurer before registering, and prices vary by insurer and postcode, so it pays to compare on the government's green slip price checker.

Worth knowing in NSW. Light vehicles with private registration renewals between September 2026 and August 2027 get a one-off $100 discount on the motor vehicle tax, and unlike some states the duty above $45,000 is marginal, so crossing the threshold does not reprice the whole car.
