North Carolina Residents:
More information on this tax thing. I called the Dept. of Revenue this morning (can you tell I'm procrastinating?) and here's the REAL skinny.
Highway use tax (the 3% is HUT and not sales tax) is applied on the purchase price after the value of the trade. Now, what can affect the "purchase price" written on the bill of sale is important. (From this page):
Rebate: Rebates are paid to the customer at a later date and therefore not subtracted from the sales price.
Discount: Discounts are issued by the dealer at the time of purchase and can reduce the sales price.
Regardless of what GM/Saab are calling the $5000/6000, according to the DMV, it's a discount because we don't get it at a later date. That means we should not be taxed on it.
If NC residents have been getting taxed on their purchases pre-discount, I can only think of 2 reasons: the dealer is ignorant of the laws or they're doing some funny business behind the scenes. I'll let you know how my visit to the dealer goes tomorrow. Wish me luck!
