Buying a used car in FL from a dealership - 1800 dollars in estimated Registration fees.
You can refuse the fees, and they can refuse to sell you the car. You don’t have them over a barrel, and likewise they don’t have you over a barrel. If that’s the only car for you, you’ll probably have to buck up and pay what they’re asking. Or, you can take your business elsewhere. More on reddit.com

r/florida on Reddit: How to DIY new car registration when buying a car in Florida?
March 24, 2025 -
according to flhsmv, new registration is $225 + plate $25 so around $250.
Dealer is asking $895 for dmv fee. Someone in other post suggested DIY, How would one go about that?
You can't drive the car to DMV without a temp plate.
some also said you can't buy the car without a plate to transfer to. dealer is required by law to register the car during a sale.
and It looks like you can't get a temporary plate if you don't have a bill of sale. not to mention dmv usually ask for 2-3 day in advance to schedule an appointment.
so it's the chicken and egg problem. how do I get a temporary 30 day plate before buying the car?

Generally speaking, if you have the bill of sale properly filled out and signed by you and the seller it is a valid form of tag. I’ve heard up to 30 days but I wouldn’t trust it. I’d take it straight to DMV, maybe even setting an appointment for the next day or later the same day so should you be pulled over you can prove intent to get it registered immediately. Now if the dealer will allow that, who knows. They may not allow you to leave the lot and sign the sales paperwork without doing the tag as well and in that case you just gotta chalk it up to the cost of doing business with them.
