Despite extra cost of transport from Spain, we are getting "ripped off" here like with most other imported products.

Those prices don't include import duty, GST, shipping costs.....
Also, were the features and specifications of the US Titanium the same as the Australian market Titanium? US cars are usually spec'd quite low to get a keep prices low and competitive with rivals, with many big ticket items either optional or bundled into packs. Ford Australia tend to keep the spec high with minimal options keep complexity down.
Yes we pay more in Australia for many things, including cars, but difference isn't as large when you consider spec for spec
