Taxes exeption in CT to buy a Prius?

There is a sales tax deduction for new vehicles purchased between February 17, 2009 through December 31, 2009. (I see no exception for CT, so you're good to go - but check with your accountant if you want some extra reassurance).

Sales Tax Deduction for Vehicle Purchases

I'm not sure if dealerships are offering very many deals yet. I purchased mine in August and paid MSRP like may other buyers who bought in July and August.

Build your Toyota at Toyota Cars, Trucks, SUVs & Accessories will help you figure out MSRP for the model you are looking for.

 

no federal deduction for prius (there is a deduction for buying any new cars on taxes you pay)

any cars over 40mpg in CT pays no sales tax. I bought mine without it.

 

WOW, that's some incentive

I bought mine from Lorensen in Old Saybrook. Paid MSRP. Paid tax on extras only - no tax on the car itself.

 

You don't pay tax at all, no need to do returns. I paid $22995 MSRP+$350 fees+$169 VIN Itch+$95 title transfer.

I would stay away from Wallingford, Hartford and the Toyota in Avon. To be honest with you, all Toyota dealerships blow. I paid MSRP for mine at Stephens in Bristol, they were acceptable. I still ended up getting shafted with some $169 VIN itch fee even though they never told me up front.

The best price I got was a place called Ira Toyota in the MA/CT border. They were willing to deal one for $350 below sticker and only have $250 in fees.

 

Just be careful before you leave your deposit, Toyota dealers are very shady. Email the guys at Ira, deal with the internet department.
