Connecticut has a great way of picking your pocket when you register a vehicle. Since I did a plate transfer last week when I sold a car and put a different car on the road, the total registration fee is uncertain. When you transfer plates, they cancel they cancel the old registration and give you a credit for what is remaining on the registration fee only. You have to pay all the other fees again. On top of what the state gets for registrations, the local town where you live charges a town tax which is your town's mill rate times the value of the vehicle as established by the state. The state used the NADA dealer's price guide.
