It depends on if they use the actual amount of the sale or the "taxable value" which is when they just go by what it's worth, no matter what it sells for. Call your DMV and ask them how they calculate the tax.
Many, if not all states, will not let this keep them from collecting the sales tax that would have been collected if the car was sold at fair-market value. If the taxing authority feels the amount of the sale is not within an acceptable range for what the car should have sold, it will compute the sales tax owed based on its own assessment. So, no, selling a car for a dollar will not lower the tax.
However, if you can document that the transaction is actually a gift and not a sale, some states will allow the dollar amount to stay. Contact your local taxing authority for more information.
