Ferrari Mailing List: Re: ferrari's in Italy

[Robert W. Garven Jr. (rgarven]

Matt,

Can you explain that more. In CA we only pay a state reg fee which is 100$ for the Ferrari and 300 for insurance. The city charges nothing. I pay all my taxes and feel like it is an obligation to be a citizen

but it sounds like you are getting raped!

What Erik's referring to is my 1991 Turbo R that I doubt you could find at a dealer for over $20k.....and my city/locality is assessing its value at $43k and taxing me about $2.5k/year as a result. No recourse for me (I've tried and met with the commissioner of the revenue)....unless I take it to court. And based on VA state law, I'll lose. The only thing I could do is convince NADA.com that they are screwed in the head publishing that a 1991 Turbo R is worth $43k, since the state says if a "recognized published pricing guide" publishes a value, then that is what you assess the car at for tax purposes....

 

But I digress....

Isn't your county already sticking it to you for your Bentley?  You need to move further off the paved road, some of us are paying a lower percentage than Romey...

I agree that we shouldn't feel sorry for tax cheats at all. I also don't like the equivalent of racial profiling that would cause someone driving a car to be stopped just because they might be wealthy. But maybe that's just me...

'39 RR P-III

'91 Turbo R

PS-As an aside, if anyone is selling a good manual TDI Passat or Jetta at $15k or hopefully way south of that, let me know....

I'm supposed to feel sorry for tax cheats because they used their ill-gotten money to buy a Ferrari?

 

How about 'NO'...
