Does NC impose a time limit on that sales tax offset? Here in AR, we have 60 days on either side of purchasing a new car to offset the sales tax with the sale of another car. It’s a pain in the rear to get reimbursed if you have to pay up front but definitely worth making sure to pay attention to that time limit!
In my case, I had until Aug 19 to get the sales tax credit. I sold my previous car for $60k, so as long as I got the M3P by 8/19, I will pay sales tax on $4,440 instead of $64,440. Getting the car tomorrow. Whew
