Bellevue: 10.3%<br />
Renton: 10.3%<br />
Spokane: 9.1%<br />

As far as I understand it, the sales tax rate is determined by the location of the dealership. <br />
<br />
First observation: never take delivery in Lynnwood. 20 miles away in Bellevue you&#039;re saving 0.5%.<br />
Second observation: you would save 1.2% by picking up in Spokane and drive 300 miles back to Seattle.<br />
<br />
I ordered a MY and thinking through my options here. 1.2% on a $53k car is $636. Not sure it&#039;s worth doing the Spokane trip. Where I live...<br />

My car was hit from the rear left end last week by a pickup truck. I reached out to Tesla service and they shared some authorized body shops in the area( pacific auto body, metro auto body rebuild, exotic auto body, accurate auto body). <br />
Does anyone has experience with these body shops? please share if you have any experience or do&#039;s/don&#039;t.<br />
I saw on some other posts where people used Tesla body repair as well, is that the better option?<br />
