Best EOFY 2025 sports & performance car sales in Australia
The definition of a discretionary purchase, sports and performance cars aren't always subject to sharp deals. There aren't huge cash discounts on sports and performance cars as part of end of financial year sales in 2024. But there are a handful of promotions worth considering if you look around. SPORTS AND PERFORMANCE CARS Cupra Formentor: OK, so you might not have heard of this one, but it's a cracker. A Spanish cousin to the VW Tiguan R and Audi S3, it combines Lambo-inspired looks with a turbo engine and all-wheel-drive traction for a cracking $61,990 drive-away – that's a discount of about $8000. Mercedes-AMG: There are deals to be done on the Mercedes-AMG A35 hot hatch, which benefits from three years of free servicing (worth $3560) and a $5000 deposit contribution when financed through 'Benz. Volkswagen: VW is offering drive-away pricing on a range of performance cars including the polo GTI ($42,990), Golf GTI ($59,990) and T-Roc R ($65,990). Subaru WRX: A modern icon, the all-wheel-drive Subaru WRX can be had with 3.99 per cent finance, though you'll need to have 15 per cent of its price ready as a deposit – that's $10,000 on higher grades.
