I am in the process of converting registrations for 2 cars from out of state to Florida. I had planned on doing this the first week of September.

After this great post, I contacted the local Florida DMV office near The Villages and found that I can do this by mail before September 1 with large savings. They were very helpful in guiding me through the process. Thanks Golfnut and TOTV.

A new title for an out of state car is increasing from $100 to $250. All other fees are going up by at least 40%. I estimate that I will save over $200 per car by beating the September 1 date.

Unfortunately I cannot get the FL driver license by mail, so that will be subject to the higher costs on my September visit.
