I’m that guy. Still no success in getting classic plates for composite / replica vehicles in CT, even when the vehicle is 20 years old. DMV states no, and haven’t been successful to get clearer legislation passed.

Mine’s titled as a 2004, so will be 20 years old 11 days. Technically, the chassis is a 2003.

Car has been taxed out of the state since 2020, after massive assessment / tax increases. Sad that it’s been sitting for so long.

The problem is that in much of New England, revenue is local instead of state so the "property tax" on cars is determined locally and with declining revenues and real estate taxes already as high as people will tolerate they look to taxing other things.

If you live in Connecticut, you need to read this thread on registration and taxation BEFORE purchasing a replica:
