I formed a corporation that holds the titles to all of my autos, truck, plane and boat. The corporation gets a better fleet DMV deal than an off the street shmo, and I get the added benifit of adding one more layer of laibaility protection. The corporation get commercial rates, and allows me a much more accelerated depreciation rate.

Main reason I register my cars in Florida.....they rape you here in Jefferson County. In Florida it's 28 bucks....at least in Okaloosa County.

Well I live in the Hoover...the part located in Shelby county...and my tag was $876.24 ..... WTF is that all about??? My '95 525i was like $175. I almost fainted when I got the bill...
I'm out in Trussville in St. Clair County.....no idea what they charge here, but I'm sure it's cheaper than Jeferson County though

Mine is due next month, and it will run $331 for my 2005 545i and that includes a personalized plate. 
Of course here in California, we get hit every other year with a smog check (plus any repairs needed) so it can be even more expensive around here too!
Not to mention Arnold Schwarzenegger rolled back our VLF (vehicle license fees) or it would be even MORE outrageous!
