Those may be the rates accordiing to the DR-CAFTA, but there are further taxes and duties that will be collected. By way of example, the 16% ITBIS to my knowledge has not been or will be phased out. Then of course, there are all those other document prep fees, consular invoices, etc.
For board informational purposes, On my next trip to S.D. in November, I will make a list of all the document fees and taxes I paid on my recent automobile adventure through Aduana. Not including shipping, I believe the total was in the 135,000 peso range.

Yes, of course ITBIS is not included, but even in The US you have to pay te VAT, that vary in each State. So, if you are gonna buy a car to export to DR, won't have to pay VAT. Here you have a discount. Others transportation costs could vary with the distance between ports and the quantity of units.
