I recently bought a couple of TR7s in seperate transactions. Both were very clean cars that had been put away years ago. They both need a good going through before I can sell them, and hopefully see a profit. One was $1200 and one was $1500. One came with a signed, undated title- good enough for me to use to resell. The other came from an estate sale. I have to go to the registry, pay the sales tax, and apply for the title in my name. Here's the problem. One would assume that a car with a bill of sale would be charged sales tax on the actual sale price. Not in Tax-achusetts. The registry claims that a TR7 is a classic car and therefore the sales tax is based on the NADA book value. NADA claims that a TR7 convertible has an average retail price of $8800. The low retail is over $5000 according to them. A TR8 is around $13K. That means that the state wants $440 sales tax and a $50 title fee just so I can resell the car. When was the last time you saw any TR7 sell for $5000? I've owned around 100 wedges over the past 20 years and never sold a 7 for more than $4500. I guess my mom in Ga. is now the proud owner of a TR7, with many more to come.($28 title fee and possibly no sales tax unless she registers it)
