$97 for the GT plus a bonus trip to the test-only Smog station every other year (thus far), to the tune of $60 or so.
Michigan was a shock when I went to register my '95 BMW Touring (original MSRP $44K) in 2000, it was something like $250. Yikes!

Man, it looks like were getting raped here in Michigan. I can say, however, mine went down this year to $270 annually from the $311 it had been the previous three years. Yippee. Probably a clerical error for which I'll have to pay interest.

Just got back from the DMV and she said my new 87 S4 is $237 per year and will be due this august (did a plate transfer). I asked her if the rates went down because my cassirot 928 is about 300 a year and she said no. She said something about the VIN and being able to look up what the MSRP was for my car back then which was 61k. Anyways still expensive compared to what everyone else pays.

In WA state I think I'm at $50 or so. We had a citizens revolt a few years ago and passed a citizens initiative (can't remember the official name of the proces) and voted for $35 tab renewal costs. The legislature overruled that (wtf?!!!), so we voted on it again, and passed it again. Then the state managed to tack on some extra fees, so now its up to $50 or so for a standard passenger car.
I'm pretty sure we voted on it twice. Or was it that we voted down the public funding for the new sports stadium - twice - but they went ahead and built it anyway....

Makes me want to go hog wild with a supercharger or turbo setup, but my budget is not going to allow that right now.
