It goes by various names, but yes. Registration (with fees that various =
by state and possibly by city/town) gets you your number plate. That =
plate does not stay with the car forever. You sell the car, you turn in =
the plate and the new owner gets a new plate. Some states also charge an =
excise tax, so they can make more money. I think NY City also adds a =
city tax. Taxation with representation.

require an annual safety inspection. Some don't. Some also require an =
emissions test. Some states have regions that require an emissions test. =
YMMV depending on where you live.
