Property Taxes on your Z

I'm confused. So in some states the car license is included in a property tax bill? When I think property tax it's for real estate.

NC has a yearly personal property tax on autos (in fact all personal property is theoretically taxable, although not really enforced except for cars and boats) based on their resale value. I think I paid in the neighborhood of $500 last year when my 370z was new. It will drop each year. I have a '92 Explorer sport that I paid $27 for this year.

It sucks but NC state income tax is pretty low, so they nickel and dime you to make up the difference. I agree that the tax should be based on emission quality instead of year and value, that's a great idea imo.

Yes, here is SC we pay property tax every year when we renew our registration. On cars, boats and motorcycles...etc.

Are you talking about advolum taxes, or do you have those too ????
GA has sales tax based on your county, and then the advolum tax that
your county collects each year when you renew your tag. This amount
goes down each year as it's based on the cars value..

Personal Property tax = advolum tax

Some states are at the end of the year, and some are when you renew your tags. Completely separate from sales tax
