I'm so confused by the my RTA Excise tax calculation...
I have 2018 LR RWD and my amount is $563. I called into see what MSRP they are calculating this off of and they told me $57k, which....makes no sense. They are clearly getting this number from the 2020 M3P

I looked up the generic vehicle MSRP that WA DOL has on file and it says my model should have MSRP of $49k:

With 2 years of service, it should have a 89% (LOLZZ) depreciation according to this:

This means my RTA tax should be $480 ($49000 X .89 X 1.1%) rather than $563. However, when I put my VIN # in, it tells me that my 2018 Tesla Model 3 (no trim is specified) owes the $563 amount.
Don't get me started on how I bought this vehicle for $36.8k and these amounts cited are ludicrously unrepresentative. Even using their numbers, this RTA tax amount does not compute.
Anyone have a similar issue and how did you resolve this mismatch?
