@slol tax is added to each payment- in that you pay tax on the amount the car depreciates every month. If you buy it out- you owe tax on the buyout amount (unless you sell to a 3rd party).

@02cic I’m not sure how one would find evidence that the sale was not for resale… we resold it the day after we got title, with exactly the same mileage on it when we bought and when we sold… so…?

here’s another discussion on this point- with later posts saying a dealer doesn’t actually have to re-register within 10 days

In CA, you are allowed to payoff your leased car in order to resell it without paying taxes on the payoff IF you can sell it back and to a third party which would need to register the car within ten days of the original leasee recieving the title form the lessor company. BUT YOU HAVE TO MAKE SURE THE CAR IS TRANSFERED TO THE NEW ONWER WITHIN 10 days. Now is the tricky part. What if I payoff the car and sell it to s deal…
