Need help on writing off vehicle on business taxes

[Periya]

Hi, I am looking to buy a vehicle that would be titled as Buy-back/Lemon vehicle. It has a steep discount with minor defect that has been addressed. Can I write off this vehicle on business taxes if I pay in full and register it on my business which is registered as S-Corp. Thanks in advance.

You can deduct your business use of the vehicle subject to the same limitations as any other vehicle.  

Business use of a vehicle belonging to an S-Corp may be deducted on an S-Corp return.

Thanks, Robert.

Just to be sure, the vehicle title wouldn't affect my write off. correct?
