How much is sales tax on a car in New Jersey?
New Jersey sales tax on vehicles is 6.625% of the purchase price. This rate applies to both new and used vehicles. There is no way to negotiate or avoid the sales tax. If you trade in a vehicle, the trade-in value is typically subtracted from the purchase price before tax is calculated, which can reduce your tax bill significantly.

People come for the number. They stay for how easy we make it.
I've loved working with Vantage for my last two cars. It's so much better than having to go to multiple dealerships and haggle to get the right make, model and price you're looking for. Their customer service and quick turnaround to getting a car delivered to your door is incredible. Highly recommend them for your car shopping needs!!

We just bought our 3rd car from Dave and his group. They make it so easy not having to go to a dealer, I wouldn't do it any other way. You tell them exactly what you want, they find it, get you a great deal and deliver it.....need I say more!!! Dave is a true professional.

Another five star experience!!! This is the 3rd car I’ve purchased through David and the crew at Vantage. No hassle, no bait and switch, no high pressure sales tactics or incessant follow up phone calls like with a traditional dealership. A few phone conversations with David, and he finds the car you want, with the trim package you want, at the best possible price. Delivery is convenient and the crew are always the constant professionals, taking the time to go over vehicle features and getting you setup to go…. Cant say enough.
