Native speakers, help me please.?

I want to ask a question about price based on minimum wage

My try: "How many times the minimum wage does this car cost ?"

I'd expect to hear: "the car costs 20 times the minimum wage.

Does my question sound correct or natural ?

Thanks in a advance!

    Yes, it's an awkward question but it's a good way to ask it. It might be clearer if you asked "How many hours would I have to work at minimum wage to buy this car?"
