how is this determined? Selling privately, I'm able to sell it for significantly more than the KBB value.


If it is a unique, high end, specialty car, I would have gotten an appraisal at the time of the gift to establish the FMV.

If it's just a standard everyday vehicle, I would use KBB private party value at the time of the gift to establish that.

I am impressed that you can sell it for significantly more than KBB value. You must have an idiot for a buyer =)

I'm betting KBB at the time of the gift may still be less than what I'm selling for now. However, if my parents had sold it privately at the time of gift, then they'd have gotten more than I will now.

Is this something I need to worry about with the IRS/DMV looking into?
