I was leaving work the other day and noticed this. Because I had parked next to a squad car, from this angle my car looks like it had a light bar on it. It’s the little things in life when you own an ex-police car.
Now, I’m waiting at the dealership while said P71 gets its state inspection. RI makes you get it done within 5 days of registering the car or they say they’ll cancel your registration. I’m not sure if they really will or not, but I’m not mucking about.
The other thing I need to do is file an appeal with the DMV over the sales tax I paid on the car. When you register a car newer than 2001 (or any ‘car of particular interest’), they charge you sales tax on the NADA clean retail value and done account for mileage. So on my $2500 141k mile CVPI, they taxed me as if the car was worth $5300...about an extra $200 in total.
I went through it with my Corvair, they taxed me on $8000 when I paid $500...I paid more in taxes than I paid for the car itself. But they have a fine appeal system, you get your money back in 6-8 weeks, which I suppose is better than not at all.
