I did a search for this but came up with nothing, if there is already a thread i apologize in advance.....

I have noticed that there are some great deals on EVO's around the Portland metro area and surrounding area. I live in Washington. I was wondering if anyone had experience buying a car out of state, particularily in Oregon. I know Oregon has no sales tax, so if a WA state resident buys a car there do they charge us the WA state sales tax or do we have to pay the tax when we register the car in WA. Any other info about this would be great, thanks!

 

You'll pay whatever licensing/registration fees there are for the state you register the car in.

 

...and, if you're looking for some wiked deals on new cars, PM me.

 

You will also pay sales tax if I am not mistaken.

 

Just to clarify though, I would end up paying the sales tax when i actually went to register the car in Washington, not at the time of purchase in Oregon right?

 

Yup, that is my understanding.

 

Thanks for the help

 

i paid something like $800 when i bought and brought in a galant VR4 from arizona to washington...that was tax and license.

but what a roadtrip

You can find some good deals around Seattle. I got mine down in Renton for MSRP. At the same time I had the dealer in Poulsbo wanting to sell for 300 under MSRP.

I just bought an RV in Oregon and you do pay the tax back in Wa when you register it.
