Ejalret, in Colorado you pay property tax on autos, and I assume it varies by county. The tax rate goes down year by year as the car ages. In Colorado Springs, El Paso county, for this year I paid $118.38 to register a 2001 that had an original sticker price of about $20,500 ($91.86 is property tax), and $28.12 to register a 1991 that had a original value of about $19,000. On the 1991 the property tax has bottomed out at $3.

You can probably find the rates for the area you are interested in by looking for the county clerk's web site.

On a house worth $118,000 I paid $571.50 in property taxes.
