Dealership is stating that I would have to register it in TX and pay Texas sales tax using family address and then re-register in TN and only pay the plate/registration.
They also seem unfamiliar with out of state leases so I wanted clarification on this.
Can I just register it for TN and pay TN sales tax and use my TN address and get it from the TX dealership?
So far most from the DFW area have said they dont do out of state leases except for one who said they don’t but do if I register it in Texas (so basically no).
Similar situation. Need in TX but if needed can have the car register in NJ with spouse residence and save on prohibitive lease sales tax. I’m taking to few NJ dealers to see if they can transport after registering in NJ. They said yes and I’m waiting for a quote on transportation. Likely to be around $1k so that takes away some benefit.
But I’ll check again with a TX dealer if they can instead help register in NJ based on license and address proof from NJ.
Yeah so far it’s been a dud. Might have to go back to TN and check things out there again unless anyone has good leads or a broker that can help ship to TN
