I may be relocating to the Albany / Saratoga, NY area. I'm curious as to how the state is in regard to car friendly-ness? What are annual registration fees like? Do they have onerous inspections like PA? Anything of note would be appreciated.

Inspections are pretty normal. Safety and emissions for newer cars. I think if you register it as a classic/antique inspections are waived. Just check the DMV.
No property tax on cars last time I knew.
Lived there for most of my life and it was no big deal. About the same as NC where I am now.

Hi! I moved to Saratoga region in 2010 for work (globalfoundries). I haven't registered the mclaren yet was waiting for Jan 2012 for it to be a "Historic vehicle", which it now is but I've been too busy. specialty vehicles / historic vehicles should get a pass on emissions if they aren't daily driven if I recall correctly, but need to check it out again.
Cars need an inspection every year and there are correlating stickers in the window. I haven't yet had to do emissions but my main cars are pretty new (2006 tacoma 4x4 and 2011 evo x mr).
Annual registration, like 60 bucks for a pretty new car and 15 for safety inspection sticker. I was paying like 450 a year for my audi in arizona before I moved here, none of that crap here. |
