(Fees, prices and information current as of
November 2006.)
1 Maximum Sales Tax
Often, you pay a combination of state, county and local taxes.
This is the maximum tax you could be charged.
2 Trade In Sales Tax
If there is a Y in this column it means that you will pay sales
tax on the difference between your new car purchase and the
value of your trade in. This is a saving to you. If there is a N
in the column, it means that you will pay tax on the full amount
of your new car purchase and the trade in has no bearing on the
sales tax you are charged.
3 Are Incentives Taxed?
If there is Y in this column it means that sales tax is
calculated before any customer cash rebates are subtracted.
4 Documentation Fee
This will tell you if the documentation fee is limited by the
state and what the maximum amount is. If there is no limit to
the documentation fee, dealers are allowed to charge whatever
they decide is appropriate. In some cases, this fee might be
negotiable.
