Miatas are fuel effecient. Buy the car out of state, buy a one-way
plane ticket out there and drive it home. Should give you plenty of time alone with the car to get to know her. ~Anthony |

That sounds very fishy to me too....but you're buying a car from a private selller if you buy it used (from a person, not a dealer). You can buy it out of state within a private transaction and drive it home. There will probably be some fees for YOUR state, but they can't increase them as far as I know. ~Anthony |

All I know is my uncle whos a mechanic and owns houses in both MA and
NH tells me this is true. He says MA is the only state where this happens (another reason why I want to move far far away). Hey, they dont call it taxachusetts for nothing. |

Hahaha....good point. I must remember that when I fly out of state to

Ok, I found the answer: http://www.mass.gov/rmv/regs/index.htm
I asked the same question on forum.miata.net and the 12.5% myth is just that...a MYTH. I'm glad I won't be paying an extra 7.5%! |
