Va Taxes on Used Cars
I was reading this post http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1590845
and now I'm wondering what's going to happen here, in Va when I take the title down to VA's DMV. How will the tax be assest, stated value, blue book value or something else. I'm purchasing from a private owner & waiting on the title to register the vehicle in my name.

St. Jude Donor '07
I live in VA, and just did mine the beginning of the month. I paid $28K for my '04, and they used my bill of sale. Appraised on Edmunds my car would retail for $34K, I paid tax only on the amount of my bill of sale.
The sales tax was 3%, so I was in the neighborhood of $840. I was thrilled, I came from CT, that tax would be double there!

3%
3% is right and it is usually the amount stated on the title ( on a VA title) at the bottom that you paid for it.

Thanks everyone for your imput. I'm worried now because the car I've purchased from a private seller has every option available on the indow sticker included with very, very low miles. I'm about to get for taxes.
