For what it's worth I sold my old car to my step dad. He refused to pay sales tax on it to the DMV and we did the 'Gift form' that was noterized. No tax.

I also disagreeded with an appraisal they did on an old VW bug. They had it valued at $3000 and it did not have a motor. I went to a car lot and got an appraisal done for something like $900. DMV accepted that price.

As far as I know the real scam is re-taxing cars in Nevada that are brought into the state from another state. This can add up big time on newer cars.
