did anyone in NJ ever inherit a car?
My aunt just called me and told me that my uncle who recently passed away wanted me to have his '07 M6 coupe (I actually thought I was ending up with one of his Porsches, but this is way better). I am waiting for their lawyer to call me back so he can tell me exactly what I need to do to resister it to me. I am picking it up today after work and I will use their tags and stuff until I switch it to me but my question is.....
Do I have to pay Inheritance tax AND NJ Sales Tax? I've tried all kinds of searches, but they are all pretty vague. thanks, Rick

Thanks Stronie! It's only got 800 miles on it, so it's not even broken in yet, but I know he enjoyed every mile he drove it.

I presume you are classified in the Class "D" section. So for the first 700k, its tax at 15%. From what I read, you need to find out the value of the M6 at the time of his death. You will be paying 15% of the value. This must be paid within 8 months after death. I'm not a lawyer, but I guess you'll wait for the answer.

I don't think so but I believe you have to prove it to DMV that its paid for already. Plus, why would you pay sales tax if the transaction is not even a sale or you already paying inheritance tax already? Thats a double whammy.. Call DMV up and ask them.

I think this should be considered a "gift". You are not paying your uncle or aunt a single penny, thus there is no "sale" to tax. So, I think only the 15% inheritence tax is sufficient, and even that is quite a lot.
Sorry about your uncle.. |

Okay I just picked up the car (drove it with a shakey leg from excitement/nerves) and also spoke with the estate lawyer. I just have to pay the inheritance tax and take some documents that he will send to me to DMV. It essentially becomes a "gift" at that point as far as sales taxes go.
You have no idea how NJ is, once I bought a car and paid taxes on what I paid for it. After 3 months, they sent me a letter stating that it was worth $3K above what I paid for it. What a hassle that became! Thanks for your help and suggestions (but not the "failing" grade) gongtowjai, I appreciate it! Rick

Sorry about your uncle. But congrats on your new ride. Enjoy it and not take it for granted. Ask the lawyer which book value to use to value the car at the time of death to determine the 15% tax. Hopefully, they mistook it for a 06...
You didn't hear it from me...
