The title fee is $85.75. I think you mean the first time registration fee, which is about $225. However, if you trade in an older car, you can transfer the registration to the new car for $46.10 and avoid the $225. Also, you don't pay the sales tax on the trade in value of the car. So, if you buy a new car for $30,000 and get $10,000 for a trade, the sales tax is only calculated on $20,000.
