My Ride: 545iSMGSilver GrayAuburn Dakota LeatherLogic 7 Premium SoundSports Package
How much is your registration fee this year for the M5 in CA? I know it went up as of May 19th but THIS much?
I got my bill for $826, holy crack... I just want to make sure they didnt screw up and billed me for more than I'm suppose to pay.

E, did you check out what the registration fee calculator says it should be?
https://mv.dmv.ca.gov/FeeCalculatorWeb/index.jsp
Also, can anyone in CA explain what criteria they use to calculate this fee? I never realized it was something more than a nominal flat rate (like it is in PA)...

+1 Gene's right: Arnie doubled the registration fees in the new "budget". Isn't that the same reason Gray Davis was recalled? Let's recall Arnie!!!
