Kuwait's Love Affair with Luxury Cars

Kuwait's tax-free environment means luxury cars cost significantly less than in Europe, the US, or even neighboring Saudi Arabia. A Mercedes S-Class or BMW 7-Series that costs €100,000+ in Germany can be purchased for 20-30% less in Kuwait. Combined with Kuwait's flat, well-maintained highways and year-round dry conditions (ideal for sports cars and convertibles), it's no wonder that the Gulf state has become a magnet for automotive luxury.
