Florida does not have a motor vehicle inspection law NOR an emission check law so neither apply in Florida. Unlike what others have said, registration in Florida is fairly reasonable BUT (and this is a biggie) if you are transferring registration from out of state or purchased a car and this is your first registration of it (in any state) you will either pay Florida sales tax on it or show proof that you paid the sales tax in the state where you purchased it. I suspect it was Sales Tax that caused the previously mentioned $400 registration cost. Also, I think to register you car in Florida you need a Florida drivers license and address, but I am not 100% sure about that.
