Private Party Vehicle Purchase Question Help

[afterme]

I'm planning on purchasing a vehicle from a friend of mine and basically i need to know if there is any tax on private party vehicle purchases. Also the car is coming from California if that at all changes anything. Thanks and appreciate it

[rickgiblin]

nope... no charges unless hes a sort of dealer of any kind

[lilmanx01]

yeeeeeep no tax. unless he works for a dealer and is sellin them on the side... but thats not common

Interesting!!! Nope he's not a dealer of any kind or anything. Just a friend that's in california wanting to sell me his type-s for dirt cheap. I was just concerned because i heard some states would tax them 7% or 3% of the vehicles total bill of sale amount or kbb amount. So after i've received the car, i can just take it to get a tag and that'll be it right?

theres tax on him

he is supposed to report that for income tax

i believe

So the car coming from california doesn't matter at all then?

[Hulud]

shouldnt on your end

youll just have to register it and get emissions

[afterme]

It's an 06 Type-s and it has to run through emissions?

[Hulud]

usually when you register a car (or atleast in my experiences) you have to get emissions done
