Anyone buy thier WRX out of state and get charged CA tax when registered here in Cali? I picked up my STI in Vega$ yesterday and was hoping not to get charged tax since it was an out of state purchase. Lucky for me it meets CA emissions. Here's an attention whore pic:

great red x

i believe that if you bring it into ca w/o registering it elsewhere, you'll have to pay the regular sales tax you would pay if you bought it here.

calib17a · 07-21-2004, 07:37 PM

I was hoping you weren't going to say that.

stephenmeade · 07-21-2004, 08:09 PM

You will definitely be paying sales tax when you register. If you didn't have to, don't you think everyone would go to Vegas and save themselves $3k on an STi?

Sales taxes on major purchases are by zip code(in effect.) Most dealers will ask where you are from.

Rob928 · 07-22-2004, 12:37 AM

I believe the car has to stay registered in nevada for 90 days prior to bringing it here to avoid sales tax.

HeyChris · 07-22-2004, 01:33 AM

gotta put atleast 7500 miles on it.... and no less than 90 days... there's an old thread about somewhere's....

skimmilk68 · 07-22-2004, 01:48 AM

ya i was thinking that too.. i was going to go to Iowa or some non-existing state and buy a car there and road trip back ,

but even if u had to pay CA tax, wouldnt it be cheaper? for example, everything in texas is so cheap! but avg wage is way lower ...

oh! *added* is this the blue sti on norton pl. in hollywood?? i always see it when i drive by to my friends house... that driveway looks very familiar

stephenmeade · 07-22-2004, 12:07 PM

Yes.

K this is very important, STEFEN you have been asigned the duty of finding out how I can buy an Sti out of state and not have to pay tax. get on it

Thanks

stephenmeade · 07-22-2004, 02:23 PM

This is easy; I don't even have to do any research. Moreover, I think it's a solution that's appealing to you, everyone in SCIC, and the citizens of Irvine:

Move to a state without sales tax. Due to distance, I recommend either New Hampshire or Alaska, both states where you are more likely to get a good deal on an STi as well.

I'm 100% serious.
