Exactly, I would have a greater tolerance for taxes if our stolen wages were used more responsibly. Here in NY we have a multi-billion dollar fraud investigation that has already landed the second and third most powerful politicians in the state in prison, with implications the corruption leads all the way to the…

You said it best. They began screwing over everyone in GA with this scheme. It is clear who the thief is. Just ask anyone in GA. Much more affordable before the change years ago. Now, you would have to keep the car forever to justify the massive tax. Guess what happens when next owner buys car.? He/she pay it…

California does the same only it’s 30 days. And people still shirk it anyway. If you drive around the Bay Area long enough you’d think the population of Nevada was something like 25 million.

It isn't, the vehicle is losing value per year and the sales tax rate is lower than the established vaut tax rate. 

Georgia caved to the car dealership lobby a few years back. You pay the tax all up front when you first tag a vehicle, new or used - private sale or dealer. If you’re a Jalop and you keep swapping out your car every year or two you get absolutely hammered on tax. Used to you’d pay sales tax from a dealer (overall…

This isn’t a sales tax, it’s a property tax. I did a little digging, but I’m having issues locating what the tax rate was before they changed. Essentially it was a yearly tax before, now it’s a one time tax on the vehicle at time of purchase. And honestly it sounds potentially disingenuous to me. Depending on how long…

Why do you assume that? Some of these cars hold their value very well, so you can put no money down, get a high residual lease or a 144 month loan, enjoy the car for a couple years and sell it at break even or a profit.  Spending a small fraction of the cost of the car in the long run.  Adding sales tax onto that…

The CHP actually has a form you can fill out as to “cheaters.” I seem to recall there was even a financial bonus at one point for doing so, but it doesn’t look like it now. And unless the guy is otherwise a tool, or he’s done something atrocious to the Ferrari, ratting him out might jeopardize your application for a…

This so-called scam is saving plenty of classics from insane “crusher” laws.

Instead of investigating, why doesn’t state legislature stop raping consumers with confiscatory and questionable taxes?

Two accidents and two repaints on an M series should be scaring you away.

I am going to get the 8 Series with the V-12, lot less money to buy, same money pit to own.

Better idea: take $3000-$5000 and go buy a 2005 Dodge Magnum RT (like I did). 5.7l HEMI V8. RWD but weighs so fucking much that you slap winter tires on it and then go fucking cruising around town in the middle of winter helping out others. I live in “Winterpeg” and it’s like driving a fucking polar bear in the…

Hm, don’t know why the links aren’t working, but it’s just three clean looking manual S4 Avants, two under $15k and one under $10k. They aren’t perfect either, but for the same price you’re getting an extra 70hp, more sporting pretense and a smidge of brand prestige, which may help eventual resale.

In Theory this is a Jalops dream vehicle.

Sleeper? They were never even that fast to begin with. Add in the stupid complex W8 engine and the fact it is from VW’s most unreliable era. Crack pipe all the way.

CP. Why buy this when you can get a newer Audi S4 Avant for about the same scratch or even less?
