Buying a Car in Oregon: Tax, Fees and Insurance

Sales tax. No sales tax; a 0.5% vehicle privilege tax applies to new vehicles. Dealers add the tax to the amount financed unless you pay it at signing, so it costs interest for the life of the loan.

Trade in. In Oregon the trade in value is subtracted before tax is figured, so a $10,000 trade in saves $0 in tax on top of lowering the loan.

Fees. Title, registration and plate fees are set by the Oregon motor vehicle agency and vary by vehicle; dealer documentation fees are set by the dealer and run from about $100 to more than $800 depending on the state. The calculator uses $300 as a placeholder; replace it with the figures on your buyer's order.

Insurance. The average Oregon car insurance premium is about $1,088 a year, or $91 a month, according to the NAIC, compared with about $1,258 nationally. Lenders require full coverage on a financed car, so budget for it alongside the payment. Compare carriers on the Oregon car insurance page.
