Out-of-State Car-Buying FAQ

How do you finance an out-of-state auto purchase?

It might not be possible to complete an out-of-state purchase with letters of credit or other financing with certain banks or credit unions, but our finance experts can work with you to make sure you get the auto loan you need.

Can you take advantage of local incentives when purchasing out-of-state?

The prices and rebates you see on our site include Kia incentives available to our Ocala community. Kia may offer different incentives for your region.

How does out-of-state sales tax work?

Many states will acknowledge the sales tax you pay for this purchase, but if you’re not in a reciprocal state, you’ll be responsible for a six-percent sales tax to the state of Florida in addition to your own state’s sales tax.

How does registration out of state work?

Our dealership is required to provide proof of registration for the vehicle, so you may not be permitted to take care of your own title and registration. Depending on your state, there might also be taxes or fees to consider, and we will estimate these for you to the best of our means. The time it takes to receive your registration may vary, and if the purchase involves processing state inspections and emissions results, it will take additional time to factor in this information.

Yes. We’d be happy to have your vehicle delivered to you.
