Reply to "New member with CA registration question"

Senna's dad,

Just be glad that you're not registering your Spyder in Connecticut.

The personal property tax on a 356 VIN would knock your sox off!

 

The Oregon title on my VS identified it as a "1957 Porsche" with "Replica' in a little comment box near the bottom of the certificate... which wasn't noted in the new registration. So my town tax assessment was based on the Blue Book value of a classic vintage Porsche...ouch!

 

The disinterested state DMV wanted big, big bucks to shuffle through their archives to recover the Oregon certificate and correct the mistake. Fortunately I live in a small chummy town, where nearly everyone is on nodding acquaintance, and am able to have the tax collector "adjust" the annual assessment.
