What is the sales tax on used cars where you live? - GoFuckYourself.com

Kenny B! · 07-12-2006, 09:00 AM

I'm looking to buy next car in the US and take advantage of the low USD$, I was just wondering what the state and federal taxes are on used cars in different states.

For anyone interested, there is no duty on cars that are made or assembled in the US, and if it's an import then there's a 6% duty. I figure I can save close to 30% depending on the car.

Le journal de montrhahaha233;al had an article about that last week... you definitly save up big time. They had an example and if I remember right, it was 7000 out of a 30 000 $ vehicule.

In NY state, it depends on the sales tax of the county you purchase in.

nebraska rips you on sales tax. No matter where you buy the car, you goto get it licensed and they rape you out the fucking ass.

through a dealership there is sales tax

if you buy from a private party, i do not believe there is sales tax, somebody correct me if i am wrong

I'll be purchasing it in the US, not sure which state though. It will be plated in Montreal so I'm not worried about the reg. fee's.

NH is a No Tax state.. No sales tax on anything at all.. No Income Tax, No Excise Tax

There is however a meals tax, & service tax

Property tax is dependant on the town,, some towns are no property tax

I always wanted to visit Canada..

Buy the car from NH or Ma & I will pick it up & drive it to you for a fee + gas, & expenses .. NH offers 10 day temporary registrations for transporting newly purchased vehicles.. Also, NH is a no insurance required state.

All you have to pay is the GST and PST for any car that is manufactured or assembled in the US, so almost any Domestic model, I believe the 3 series BMW is assembled there as well. For any imports they charge you a 6% duty.

I figure I can but the car, drive it for a year and flip it for a profit or atleast not have it cost me anything to drive

In NYS you pay the sales tax when registering the car at the DMV. If buying from a dealer, they handle it with the registration.

I'm not that far from NH, I look forward to flying down to wherever and taking a road trip back up.

if you buy the car in the usa for shipment to canada, there should be no state sales tax..

Damn it Kenny, come to the content party this weekend, grab a car here in MO. You don't have to pay in state tax at all if your in Canada!

JimmiDean · 07-12-2006, 02:36 PM

This is Canada but here's a good laugh.......
so long as you are not buying a car.
In Ontario 8% provincial tax and 6% goods and service tax on new or used from a dealer.
If you buy used private you only pay the 8% provincial but the tax is either the sale price you paid or the Govt book value (whatever is higher)
in other words you buy a car for 5k Govt says it is worth 9 you pay tax on 9k but if you buy a car for 9k and the Govt book says it is only worth 5 you still pay tax on the 9
To add injury to insult you have to buy a used car buyers package from them another 20 bucks to transfer the vehicle.
just a total rip off.
