After last weeks CA tax rant, I’m extremely pleased to say there has been a happy outcome – I received this email from MINI USA this afternoon:
… If you are not a resident of the State of California and you receive any type of correspondence from the State of California regarding the JCW GP Kit Delivery program held in Monterey, please send it directly to us and we will handle the inquiries and response on your behalf. You will not be responsible to pay the State of California Use Tax …
Let’s keep it simple. Let’s drive a great car. Let’s have a great time.

An excellent response and very much appreciated – happy smiling faces once again for all us Monterey GP buyers 🙂
