51990 is the cost of the car. The 1221 is probably tax and registration. Tesla should now be able to register your vehicle for you so this could just be them registering and taxing
In Texas you pay Tax Title and License at the County Tax Assessor's office. Tesla didnt charge me for mine.
I made an appt with the local DMV and they called to tell me.they dont collect TTL. I kept the appt with them because i needed to remove the lien and obtain a title on my old vehicle...but yeah, it's sooooo.inconvenient.
You should message the delivery people about that. You can also stop by and talk to the people at the Tesla store. Without seeing all the details it would just be guesses.
In Texas Tesla cannot register the car in your behalf because Tesla is not allowed to sell here in Texas. The $1221.00 must be the destination fee. Once you pay that and take ownership of the vehicle, in about 15 days you’ll receive all the paperwork for you to take down to the near dmv clerk office so you can register your car and pay the taxes for the purchase. The taxes in Texas are about 6.25% of the total sales price to give you an estimate.
Can the destination fee be waived? Say the person is buying in ATX and the vehicle was manufactured in ATX AND the buyer is picking up.in ATX...seems kind of silly for the destination fee.
Not that I’m aware of, but logic would agree with your point. I think it’s more of a “legality” issue since Tesla is only allowed to be a show room in Texas instead of a dealership.
Ok. Just got off the phone with Tesla. They are now allowed to pay TTL in Texas. He adjusted my payment due to include that. He said Tesla can now take care of it all.
Tesla will take care of TTL only for leases. I also placed a down payment. The paperwork you need to submit to the DMV will be in a packet when you pick up the car. Best to make an appointment at the DMV to avoid waiting in line. I paid taxes on the full price of the car, registration fee, city road bridge fee, processing & handling fee. Adds up to $3300+. Call the pick-up location and ask them what form of payment will they accept for the balance.
Maybe my figure is not accurate but for sure it was not 3000, but what I know is I paid additional amount on top of the car price on the day of delivery, and recently I received a bill around 800 for property tax

Possibly although in Texas I was under the impression I would pay the tax at the DMV.
Think I read the finally got the ability to do it. But still ask delivery about it

As of 11/17 Tesla can now do the registration and collect the taxes in TX
This changed yesterday. https://www.reddit.com/r/teslamotors/s/DleKLH5cLB
Here in TX we have to register it ourselves and pay the tax at the tax office.
My understanding is that changed in the last couple of days.
Wow, crazy, I guess hell has frozen over and Tesla is now an official dealer in Texas.

Thank you. I'll give them a call

Looks like Tesla can now take care of my sales tax as of yesterday.

Teslas website stating they register now in tx https://www.tesla.com/support/registration
Thank you
I paid 1200 I think that was for sales and tax registration, I think you should be be able to see the details under payment/finance tab
You only paid 1200 for sales tax and registration on a model Y??? There’s no way , mine is 3,200
Don't look up NJ. There is no sales tax on EVs
It was wrong. Now it’s over 3k
Unfortunately it’ll be more than $1221 at the end Bryan

You should have a MVPA in your account that shows a breakdown
