You will only have to pay for local state taxes & registration fees.

No customs when shipping it over here to your APO. Any shipping company over here knows how to do this. The German customs/Zoll has nothing to do with the car. (as long as you register the car thru USAEUR). Cars get shipped to Bremerhafen - and you can either pick up the car there or have it shipped to a US Base within DE.

Paying state tax you will have to do sooner or later.

I wonder how ED works IF you never drop the car back to BMW after taking delivery? You might look into that.
