I can tell you for SURE that it is NOT California.
I'm looking at next year $350 + $40 if you have a personalized license plate.

I'm not sure why you'd want to know. Registering a new car in another state may not save you any money. When you do bring it back to NY, you might have to pay sales tax (or use tax as CA calls it) anyway.

Who says I'm gonna bring it back to ny

So, you're going to move to whatever state's cheapest to buy and register your new car ??

Ohio is a bit under $50 for my bimmer. And our shitty roads are a testimate to that.

CA has 1% property tax. If a state has low registration on cars like Texas for example, the property tax rate is around 2-4%. On a $300,000 home, that is $6-12k a year in property tax vice $3k.

I would rather pay a little more vehicle registration.
