Thanks!!!

Don't forget that any "final price" will be plus 6% sales tax if you are at a dealer. If it is a private purchase you will be charged the sales tax when you go to get a tag for the car.

It's not like the UK.

thing with private, you could always bung them a few extra bucks to write down a lower sale price to lower the tax...
