Actually, I am buying a used NH car from a good NH friend and I wanted to start driving it around once I arrive in NH in a couple of days.
In reality I would prefer to register it in Florida, but then encounter the big logistics question; How do I register it in Florida next week when I won't be returning to Florida until late October? i.e. signatures will be involved as well as paperwork and license plates will need to be mailed to me. And, I believe the Florida DMV will want to walk around the used car and physically check the VIN number.
With that said, all in all it may be easier to register it in NH now, and transfer it to Florida when I return back home. The sales tax is not the issue. And I like the idea of never to have the vehicle inspected once it is registered in Florida.
I'm up for suggestions......
