How does that work out for you regarding taxes? For the carrier direct, my bank just wired them the amount of the car and destination fee (no taxes), and then I am subject to local taxes when I register the vehicle. I briefly looked into picking up a Tesla in a nearby state, but we have really low auto sales tax (4% total) and I could never get a straight answer from Tesla how they handled sales tax if you bought outside your home state. After state and local taxes, Denver has an effective 8.31% tax rate. After not being able to get a straight answer, I accepted the carrier direct delivery method as I didn’t have to take a road trip and the delivery to my door was already included in the purchase price.
