I tried to search for an answer to this but couldn't find appropriate details.
Does anyone know if Tesla charges sales tax based on the service center where the car will be delivered, or the car's registration location (which is where I live)?
My current delivery choice is the service center in San Rafael, CA which has a sales tax of 9.25%.
However I live in San Francisco, which has a sales tax of 8.75%.
If I keep the San Rafael service center as my delivery location, will I be charged 9.25% or 8.75% in sales taxes?
(I know it may sound like a small difference, but on $130k, the difference in tax amounts to $650 which isn't negligible... premium center console!)
Thanks,
