FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
For some customers, this may be their 1st time purchasing a vehicle outside their state.Buying a car from us is easy, we listed below a helpful F.A.Q for our customers who live out-of-state.
"CAN I BUY A CAR FROM ANOTHER STATE?"
Answer: Yes, buying a car from another state is very common, especially for buyers looking for specific models or better deals
"HOW DOES OUT-OF-STATE REGISTRATION WORK?"
Answer: Out-of-state registration requires transferring your vehicle's title, obtaining local auto insurance, and passing a VIN verification. You typically have 30 to 60 days to complete this process at your local DMV or County Clerk's office.
"DOES THE DEALERSHIP ARRANGE SHIPPING & DELIVERY OF VEHICLE?"
Answer: Yes, we handle titling, registration, & shipping for out-of-state purchases. You can also arrange your own out-of-state shipping and delivery of the vehicle.
"WILL I HAVE TO PAY SALES TAX TWICE"
Answer: No. generally you only pay sales tax in the state where you register the vehicle, not where you buy it. We handle the paperwork so you pay your home state's tax at your local DMV. If you pay a lower tax rate at the dealership, you may owe the difference to your local taxing authority.
"DO I NEED AN OUT-OF-STATE VEHICLE INSPECTION?"
Answer: Yes, often. Before you can officially register and title the vehicle in your home state, your local DMV may require a VIN inspection (to verify the vehicle identification number) and sometimes an emissions test to ensure it complies with local environmental laws.

ALPHA MOTORS OUT-OF-STATE CUSTOMER REVIEW
"I had the absolute pleasure of dealing with Moe and buying my car out of state. He was incredibly down to earth and dealt with hundreds of my questions. He made the process very transparent and this has been the best experience I’ve had purchasing a car.He went through all the extra effort to FaceTime me and show me every inch of the car. We had the paperwork done in two days, he even arranged the shipping at an incredible rate. The car showed up literally overnight from Knoxville to Houston, I was so shocked it was delivered so quickly. I can’t recommend these guys enough, Knoxville is very lucky to have a dealer like this. 10/10 recommend and would do business with again. Unquestionably the best in the business!"
