Buying Out of State?
All customers intending to purchase from out of state should read the following answers before visiting Arrigo Alfa Romeo of West Palm Beach.
Out-of-State Purchase FAQs
Will you ship me the vehicle?
Yes, we can ship vehicles all over the continental United States.
Pricing and rebates?
The advertised pricing for new vehicles on our website and other media is after Alfa Romeo incentives applicable to residents of the region. Alfa Romeo may offer different incentives for your home address, so pricing may differ.
What about taxes?
Most states, but not all, are reciprocal with Florida for sales tax. In states that are not, you would pay 6% sales tax to Florida plus your home state tax. As of now, Arkansas, Mississippi, and West Virginia are considered double-tax states; there are others in certain cases as well.
Can I register any Arrigo Alfa Romeo of West Palm Beach vehicle in my home state?
Some states have different emission requirements than Florida. We are able to accommodate most states, towns, and cities.
Can I finance with my bank or credit union?
Drafts, letters of credit, or funds on hold will not be accepted on out-of-state deals. We will also be happy to assist you with financing.
What about insurance?
You will be required to provide state- and VIN-specific insurance, a driver’s license or other proof of identity required by your state, and if transferring a license plate, a copy of your state registration. All of these must match the address of your new registration and the address on our buyers’ order.
What if I am not returning home soon?
Some states require a vehicle/emissions inspection in your home state before they will title and register the vehicle. If your state does not have inspection requirements, the process is much simpler.
Can I handle my own title and registration?
No. Our manufacturers and lenders require the dealership to provide proof of registration and lien record. Alfa Romeo requires proof of registration matching any incentives received.
What about additional fees charged by my state?
There are a few states that will not or cannot give us the amount of local/city/county/state fees, sales tax, ad valorem tax, or use tax. We will do our best to estimate titling and registration costs for your home state, but in some cases additional fees and items may be required. Your help gathering required documents and fees is necessary before we can deliver your vehicle.
How long will it take to receive my new registration?
Each state varies greatly on how fast they process out-of-town titles and registration. If you must provide emissions, state inspection, ad valorem, or paid property tax receipts, processing time increases. Once we have all documents, our goal is to complete registration within 60 days.
