Thanks for that info. I took another look at the DMV fee calculator, but without knowing the license and VIN, it's impossible to get a quote. Also, some parts of it are written in a language completely unknown to me :

Vehicle Identification Number:
(key last 5 positions)
(key the full VIN)
(If less than 5 positions, key the full VIN)


WTF does this mean? By 'last 5 positions' does it mean last 5 characters? If so, what's the "If less than 5 positions" bit about? Maybe if I'm after a quote on my Ford Model T, it may have a VIN like "001" or something?! I've never seen a VIN shorter than about 13 characters.

So, in a nutshell, can someone give a very vague guess as to what I'm likely to have to pay (in taxes) per year to keep my (as yet imaginary) $25000 370Z on the road in Ventura, California? I've really no idea if we're talking about $100 or $1000 .

Thanks!!
