    I am starting my search for a new daily driver. I am just not inspired by BMWs and Porsches any more and need to get back to an Italian car. After much due diligence I am 90% decided on getting a Maserati Coupe. From what I have read here and on ************ they seem like the perfect car for a daily driver and the occasional back road jaunt through the hill country.

    My preference is to go through an authorized dealer in TX in order to trade in my BMW 545 and get the tax credit. Also to have a relationship in case of problems and to get the extra year of warranty through the Maserati pre-owned program. FM of San Antonio would be my first choice but they have zero stock. Park Place and FM of Houston both have a few but nothing that gets me excited. I saw a few nice cars at Maserati of Minneapolis (a sponsor of ************ and highly regarded there).

    Can I still get the TX sales tax credit with an out of state transaction? Or should I try and find a friendly dealer to broker the deal through? Or should I wait for the right car to show up at a local dealer?

    Thanks in advance for the advice.
