Don’t know about Cali, but there are no personal property taxes on cars in my state. You just pay sales tax when you buy the car and yearly registration of $75.

Of course, the state still screws you when you buy a used car, since you have to pay sales tax on the purchase price or blue book value, which ever is higher.

Here in New England, I think the only state that doesn’t have sales tax on a car is NH ...sounds like a good deal, eh? But their property taxes are outrageous....they getcha one way or another.

Jobs’ behavior [skirting license plates, parking in handicap spaces,] seems childish to me.

Hasn’t it been reported that SJ embraced Buddhism? Didn’t he learn anything about Karma?

Yearly reg fee depends on the age of the car.

The older the car, the less the annual reg fee.

CA is trying to get older cars off the road by making the smog requirements more stringent, and are offering up to $1,000 for cars built before 1989 or so.

No way they are getting my pristine, one previous owner, Silver 1988 BMW 325i w/Black Leather Convertible with just a few miles over 100k on it.

Best car I’ve ever owned, and I’ve owned a lot of cars.

Dependable as the Sun rising, easy to work on, parts are inexpensive and plentiful and while it’s not the fastest car on the road, it’s a real Canyon Carver and a blast to drive on Highway 1 to the Beach or to the Mountain.
