The car tax is determined as two percent of the last purchase price of the automobile times an 11-year depreciation schedule. It is important to note that every time the car changes ownership, the depreciation schedule starts over, based on the price paid for the car.

I wonder how they deal with a scenario in which I give you money to buy me a car then you sell it to me for $200. Well, it’s probably a stretch in that case, but I can easily see some old lady buying a Lincoln and “selling” it to her son for a token amount. I’d bet money they have something in place to deal that sort of thing. They’re not going to sit around while you’re paying $4 to register a current model year Lincoln. Or maybe they didn’t consider it.
