+1 I think mine was slightly over $1,600. :bs

I love Cali but registration fees :thumbsdow:thumbsdow

Skyrex take hart in Kalifornia the fees go down each year as it depreciates. Year 4 on my gt reg just paid was $626 this year. Each year you own and enjoy your gt the dmv fees seem to go down. last year was $695 and the year before $492 but 2006 was 8.5% sales tax plus registration. Fees here are all over the place. Just enjoy your great car now with the new power adders out back. At least they are not charging us property tax like on the plane and boat.

Drive it at the limits and enjoy it

Exactly. Or get a Texas dealer's license. Inexpensive and not too hard to comply.

Also.....in the states with exorbitant registration fees (not propery tax...that's different).....how much is a ticket IF you get caught with expired plates. It's less than $200 here in Texas. Why not just drive expired? Might be cheaper...unless you plan on getting pulled over a lot. I have never registered a trailer in my 54yrs. Never been stopped pulling a trailer either. They have plates, just generally expired. Fine is less than $200. $60 to register per yr. Never been stopped. Saved a ton of money....if I get stopped I will just pay the fine.

living large Nardo!

Same goes for front plate. Currently have 8 out of 10 vehicles with no front plate.

And that's for the last 47 years of driving. and that's less than a $1.80 per year, 0r some thing like 4/100's of $ 0.01 per day.

Only time it was a problem, which reulted in a $25 ticket, was from a meter maid. She had to walk to the rear of the car to write the frign ot parking ticket.

Hey Jeff
Possibly dating yourself when you say "meter maid" ? Do they still have those ?

If it is allowed in your state...buy plates for one of your cheaper cars, then "transfer" them to the GT. It works in Michigan!

Two years ago when I moved to Idaho I was charged for a out of state transfer fee, personal plate fee, and one year registration totaling $62.00.

PS, the lady at the window spoke english, was friendly, apologized for the less than five minute wait and remembered my name when I came back the next day to register my bikes and other cars. This is only one of the reasons I purchased a jacket for 3 months out of the year and left California.

Thanks for the kind thoughts. I do long for the Jerry Brown days, looks like they may return?
Floridaho Chris gets pissed when I post this stuff. He is constantly saying we don't need any more GT owners up here hogging up our wide open back roads and jacking up our property tax base. LOL!

Steve, DMV in SoCal is no problem if you knew how to communicate... I used to take a printout of (see partial list below) how to say thank you in different languages with me just to be cordial! Could not attach full list, it exceeded max characters allowed.....

I know TX sounds inviting but...if you own a 1.5 million dollar home in San Antonio they charge you 3% (45k) property tax per year, not bad when comparing some state income tax but if you get fired....you're still paying! Great place to retire...but RENT a really cool place vs. buy. Seems like one way or another they're gonna getcha.

I know TX sounds inviting but...if you own a 1.5 million dollar home in San Antonio they charge you 3% (45k) property tax per year, not bad when comparing some state income tax but if you get fired....you're still paying! Great place to retire...but RENT a really cool place vs. buy. Seems like one way or another they're gonna getcha.

Prop. taxes in CA are higher for comparable homes and you have to pay 10.8% income tax and 9 to 10% sales tax!!!

CA is still broke, I think it is because we don't pay enough taxes.

Buying out of state and bringing into CA

For those folks like me who live in The People's Republic of California, what are your recommendations on buying an out of state FGT? What's the process and do I have to pay sales tax to Nancy Pelosi when I bring her in?

Thanks (hopeful future buyer of a FGT).

New Mexico, 52.00 per year after the 3% tax on initial purchase.

AVjunky, there are lots of old posts here about CA registration and smogging an out of state car. The search button can be your friend.
