: I had something like that happen to me back in 1969. I came to Califorina from Connecticut with a 1968 Triumph GT6,at the time all plates in Connecticut were $2.00 per year,thats right just two bucks.Anyway I go to register this fine car in the land of fruit's and nut's and they tell Me that will be $375.00 please!Well I pay it,and then call the insurance company (allstate) to tell them that i moved,well they up the up the cost of insurance by 5x,I asked WHY? They tell me that i'am driving a "HIGH PERFORMANCE CAR" Huh? a Triumph? They tell Me That I'am driving a 68 Pontiac GTO with TRI-POWER,The smart guy at the DMV takes GT6 and turns it into GTO,and takes Triump and turns it into TRI-POWER,Go figure! Anyway Good luck!
