I'm in California, thinking about buying a car in Nevada. My CU is financing my loan, and states that I am NOT to pay the sales tax or registration fee in Nevada, that they will pay it here. They want the contract faxed to them, and the title to be given to me and driven over to the CU on my way back into town. Why would Nevada allow a car to be purchased in Nevada and let California earn the sales tax? It just makes no sense to me. Is this just a simple matter of residency? I haven't heard back from the Nevada salesman for 2 days - wondering if the "don't pay sales tax in Nevada" my CU has imposed has stalled the deal?

| Is the tax info on states listed anywhere easy to find? I have a residence in UT and looking at getting another in CA soon. Then when buying a car, which would be best to buy in, CA or UT? | |

OK, so if I currently live in Utah, but am moving to California to be my primary residence then California will become my new residence by law. It looks like sales tax is less in Utah from what I have gathered. If I buy a car in Utah and have it registered, then move to Cali and reregister it, will I have to pay any tax again or just the registration?
