In California, i know they are based on the value of the vehicle. But I don’t know the formula. Since ** Pump Action Gerbil ** bought a new car this year, I know we are going to get slammed with a fat registration fee next year, and I’d like to be prepared.
In California, the vehicle registration fee is 2% of the market value of the vehicle. Visit California’s Revenue and Taxation Page - Vehicle Registration Fee. Another reason I’m glad I don’t live on the West Coast
