Yes but  Matt, in CA my car cost over $400 to register (1996 Passat, not old 
Corvair)  and here in VA it costs $23.  CA pptax were $0 and VA pptax was 
around  $400.  CA registration "fees" are tied to car value.  In CA they  label 
taxes as fees since proposition 13 put a ban on certain  "taxes".   Those 
politicians, they're so clever.

Mikey - You musta got took! I just paid the years registration on my 1996  
Camaro. $96 including the personalized plate (24RACER) - Now, if you were a  
California resident and bought the car out of state and brought it in? Yeah  - 
You might have paid sales tax on the car. But registration keeps going down  
every year you own the car. It does bottom out at about $50, depending on the  
county of residence. - Seth
