As a former car salesman you pay state taxes in the state you register it in. Thats a fact and the law.

You would probably have to pay sales tax when you purchase the car based on the state where you buy the car. The reason for this is that they would have no proof that you are going to take the car out of state and register it elsewhere. As a result, they will need to collect the sales tax from that state.
When you get to another state and go to register the car, your receipt from the seller will show that you have paid sales tax when you purchased the car. The registration state will then give you credit for the amount that you paid, and possibly charge you the difference if the registration state has a higher amount of sales tax.

I beleive you pay the tax in the state where you buy the car, but be careful that when you go to register the car in your home state that you dont have to pay the tax again. Call your local tax collector and ask them how it works.

I am 90% sure that you would have to pay the tax of the state you bought it in.
The car dealer would have to pay their state the tax, so you would have to pay them the tax first.
If you paid the tax where you live, and if that was less $, then the car dealer would have to pay out of their pocket to their state. And I dont think they would do that.
Hope I explained it good enough.

It depends on whether the states have a reciprocity agreement in place for sales tax.
Generally you owe the tax in the state where you register the vehicle.

You register your car in the state it will be parked overnight - same for insurance, unless you are military. In that case you would register your vehicle in your home state (where you pay taxes.)
