First car and first EV.
Since we're all waiting, let's talk taxes and fees.
As I've already said, I'm new to buying car (and also new to LA). I'm trying to wrap my head around the taxes and other fees that I'll have to pay for the car. I purchased online so I really have no idea of how to anticipate these costs. I'm hoping that someone who went into a store or who has purchased a car before can lend some wisdom. I know that the LA sales tax is 9.50% (I live in Los Angeles County), but what else should be added in there? Or perhaps the ballpark range of money to have on-hand to pay for these items? My car is $51,500 before the $1,200 destination and doc fee.
