This is what AI says. My experience from years ago is it was more expensive as far as I can remember.
When you move to Florida and register your existing car, you’ll need to pay several fees:

Initial Registration Fee: $225, if you don’t already have a Florida license plate to transfer.

Title Fee: $77.25 for an electronic title or $85.25 for a paper title.

License Plate Fee: This varies depending on the weight of your vehicle, typically ranging from $14.50 to $32.50 for standard vehicles.

Sales Tax: If you purchased your car within the last six months and paid less than 6% sales tax in another state, you may need to pay the difference to Florida.

Local Fees: Some counties charge additional fees.

You’ll also need proof of Florida insurance and a completed application for a Certificate of Title and Registration. Let me know if you’d like more details!
