Has anybody received a $300 tax bill from South Carolina....

see bellow

*The following information only applies if you reside in the following states:Arkansas, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Virginia, West Virginia, or the District of Columbia. The State of South Carolina imposes a use tax of $300 upon the first use of a new vehicle in South Carolina, purchased from a state listed above. Since you will be taking delivery of your new vehicle in South Carolina, this tax may apply. This first time use tax will not be collected by your retail center or the BMW Performance Center. Should the State decide to collect this tax from out-of-state consumers, it would be billed by the State of South Carolina and payable directly to the same. The BMW Performance Center is not aware of any instance where the State of South Carolina has sought this first time use tax against any of our delivery customers. In the event taxes are assessed and taxes were paid in your home state, recovery of taxes may be available in full or part. Note that such recovery may not be available from states adjoining South Carolina. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you. The BMW Performance Center 061907

iirc no one has ever been taxed. Unofficially its just a necessary formality.

Damn!! I wonder if it's hurting the PDC delivery enrollments?

IIRC i read another thread that said the PDC has never actually had SC ever attempt to collect this tax, but they do mention it just in case.
