I got my then-new SPF titled last summer and for awhile they were going to charge me $1200 per year for registration before they changed their mind and charged me $40 per year instead. This is making a long story short. The process took tact, diplomacy and humility but it worked.

The problem was the person behind the counter was going to register it as a '65 but a supervisor who just happened to overhear said no, it had to be registered as a new car, hence the $1200. Confusion reigned for awhile until it got straightened out and was finally registered as a '65 so I got the $40 rate. Whew.

During the negotiations if things didn't work out my plan was to say I couldn't afford that right now and will title later, then go to a different office and try again and keep repeating that process until I found the right person behind the counter or ran out of offices.

Look at it as an adventure.
