Colorado went after (successfully) RV owners doing the Montana thing a few years ago. The sales tax is painful in most states, and get that is part of buying a car. My bigger issue is the recurring annual registration fee here, which for a GT3 is nearly $4k... Absurd to pay that to register one car each year.

For those that have done this, any issue with insurance?

No way I'll mess with CA and Montana plates. I'm a resident of NV but I have a 2nd home in CA and I spend time in both states a good bit of time. I use the no sales tax on private party car purchases in NV and register the cars there. I drive around CA with my NV registered cars without any problems and it's not that uncommon that I would stick out like a sore thumb. If I do get pulled over in CA I show them my NV license, NV insurance, and NV registration and say that I'm here for a few days on business. They can't really say or do anything.

Certainly choose the lesser of the 2 evils, but both states bend you over with registration fees. I had never heard of ANNUAL fees based upon a certain percentage of the car's value. It will never make sense in my mind that 2 cars of the same weight, dimensions, purpose, etc can costs thousands of dollars difference to register! At least the various other states I've lived in charge flat fees based upon weight categories and commercial/private use.

I get bent over to the tune of 2300 a year to register my car. I have other "options" but chose to follow the law. I was raised with the idea that " you cannot cheat an honest man "

Soon as Porsche announces the details on the 991.2 the RS balloon will start to deflate.

Would the "annual registration fee" be a personal property tax bill like they have in VA and other states or any car, boat, or bike registered in the state? I paid PPT on vehicles when I lived in Arlington, VA, and think they were set by the county and not the state.
Seems extreme for annual registration.

Yeah. Sadly, I'm almost certain these are not a new batch of allocs. Also, McKenna, just like Auto Gallery, is known for boarding their allocs, speccing the car, and then sitting on it for a sucker to come by and overpay for it.

I sure hope so. We need to get Martin his MSRP RS. I doubt there will be more and the reason is the last round was more of a bonus not a true allocation. That's why I don't think they will make more 2016. Perhaps 2017 though.
