I've looked at Ebay, Cars.com etc.

If there is a car that is listed at $28000 with 25,0000 miles it is usually Olivine Green, Leatherette, or missing some desirable features. I invite anyone to find me a deal with a clean Carfax CPO...

Sales Tax when bought out of state

I read a posting that said there is no Sales Tax when purchasing out of state. Is this correct? I would be purchasing a CPO 2006 X5 in New York and am a NJ resident. Thanks.
