There is a blanket 10% on everything, from everywhere. But imported cars, and parts, are much higher, at 25%.
I guess the reasons that I'm not hearing about this much in the forums are many - China is grabbing the headlines, it's hard to keep track of the tariff rates, the effective dates, and the rollbacks and adjustments. Also the inevitable delay in the price increases actually getting to the consumer, which is still a long way off.
There are various reports of Porsche rushing inventory into the US ahead of the tariffs, and they are going to have a few months of inventory on hand but that's going to get used up pretty fast.
