I was wondering if I could get some help with sales tax rates and registration in Park City, Utah. Far as I can tell, sales/use tax rate on car purchases would be 6.75% in Summit county. I'm wondering also what registration fees are in Utah and also what emission and inspection requirements would be on a new car purchase. I split time between Park City and Santa Barbara, CA and with the sales tax rates being 8.75% now and registration rates going up substantially it might make sense to purchase and register in Park City vs. SB. Problem is the car will spend most of the time in SB and if inspections are needed that might be difficult to coordinate at this time of year. Thanks in advance for the help. Jeff
I just moved from Park City. Wonderful Place! If you have the Ferrari out give me a holla we do quite a few Ferrari drives through the canyons and back roads around PC. As for registration, dont know if the % difference justifies the cost/hassle to register it here. Try calling them tomorrow and ask what requirements are for the car you are considering. Phone 435-615-3940 Cheers!
Why worry if its a new car purchase! I thought you could write off all state and local taxes on a new vehicle purchase or did they put an interesting limit on the amount you can write off??
