Yesterday, I was told by Hyundai in Clermont that they charge everyone $474 for the title and tag transfer fee, even though the actual Florida fee is less than $100. They do this because some customers owe money to the state, and that if they don't, the state will send the customer a refund within about 2 weeks. This didn't sound correct, so I asked the DMV to confirm what the Hyundai guy told me. The DMV lady said that the dealer had lied to me, and that they would never send a refund. Go figure.
