yup.
If you buy it from a private owner there is no sales tax. If you get it from a dealership, you'll pay ~8% sales tax
Food items
Be careful! As long as the car is titled to a private owner, NO you don't have to pay sales tax. But we made a huge mistake! Thought we were buying from a private individual but he put the title in his privately owned company name and now we have to pay sales tax. A fact the OWNER should have disclosed!!
That's what you make & depends upon the percentage & your sales.
alot of money,but only for food
Pennsylvania doesn't have a 6.5 percent sales tax. It is 6.0. You pay the tax on everything except clothing and food.
Yes, in Michigan you will pay sales tax on everything purchased, private or not, except food and water.
I checked with my local tag office today and they said you do not have to pay tax if the vehicle is purchased from a private owner.
states vary, kansas for instance, in a total loss incident, will pay the owner direct the sales tax....missouri issues a ''sales tax affidavit'' that is good for six months....and the amount is NOT for the ''replacement car'' but the acv (actual cash value) of the totaled vehicle.....
A purchase is exempt (excused) from sales tax if the item/s will be re-sold. If a purchase is made for consumption (for personal use) sales tax needs to be paid.
Almost everything except some clothing and food items.
