If you have a leased car from another state make sure you call or get the forms from the Florida DMV to get the title transferred to Florida or you won't be able to register your car. This can take two weeks. The Florida DMV needs to fax the form to the state the car is registered to get the title. Most people are unaware of this extra step and delay.
