Gas Guzzler Tax

Do you have to pay the Gaz Guzzler tax when you purchase a car for European Delivery? I think that since you are importing a used vehicle, that you don't have to pay this tax.

Good question, but I am almost certain that in this case, just like every other case that I've come across, its just like buying a regular new car, you still have to pay all the taxes and fees.

That's correct. You're not really importing a used car, so far as customs/duty/safety is concerned.

You are not importing a used car with ED. When you take delivery of it it is brand new.

You aren't going to avoid the guzzler tax. What really sucks is that it is specified as an option, so you also pay sales tax on the guzzler tax.

Gotta love double taxation.

Every time you fill up, you get that. (if not triple). Federal plus state gas taxes, plus state sales tax on the total (after tax) price. (I know--no sales tax in some states . .. )
