Just curious to find out... how long did it take you guys to receive your license plate. Also, I live here in california and that triple car tax sucked. Registration was $667, how much did you guys pay?

Meeh,

It took about 6 weeks for the Ferrari and about 8 weeks for the explorer.

Registration sounds Right. I don't remember the exact number but I know it was in the 600's

That triple car tax sucked? That is an understatement! $667 for registration? Did they use vaseline? I guess Florida registration is not too bad ~ $160. They didn't charge triple car tax (No state tax in FL, thanks to tourists).

What a joke! (not you, mikeb, but California) Anywhere in Canada, you walk into a registry office (located in every town, and dozens of them in the cities), present your bill of sale and registration papers, they punch it into the computer and hand you a new plate from the stack behind the counter. 10 minutes maximum!! What the hell can they be doing that it takes 2 months?????

Even ordering a personalised plate in Canada, it only takes 5 or 6 weeks to arrive.

Regards,
Gordon

Registration was ~$75

Received license plates 4 days after delivery of the car (inlcuding the one day to mail them to me).

Took me two months to get mine. But apparently VA is like that normally.

It's been 10 weeks, and I still don't have my plates. I called DMV and they said my registration and title were issued 9/27 (6.5 weeks), and my plates should arrive 30 days after that. Ridiculous!
