You would be taxed on $48,000, even though the purchase price would be $43,000.

Also, BMW incentive is actually $2500 if you were getting out of a previous lease. My dealer kept saying $2,000 until I pushed the lease to lease credit and they applied the extra $500 for a total of $2500.
In my state, you're only taxed on the monthly payment, which is inclusive of any discounts from any source. So it's not *always* taxed.
