Umm...not something I would do. You'd be paying top dollar for a used car. And that's something to consider when financing, insuring the vehicle, and at re-sale.

The point of my post was that there's no free lunch--- and no "dollar sale". Market value taxes will be paid at each transaction.

Used Prices

I'm not trying to pick a fight here, but have you looked at the used smart prices on e-bay?
