Dan where did you find this info? I did a quick look on the DMV
site and couldn't find anything on it.

I don't recall what the threshold is, but in Florida you can do "year of issue"
plates on cars older than a certain number of years. It's a one time flat fee, which is
nice, since if you're planning on keeping the car for any amount of time you can save a
chunk of change.
Try researching the classic/collector/antique registrations in different
states. It's a crazy patchwork quilt of laws, none of which are consistent
between states.

I forget what a historic vehicle plate costs in MI, but it's not out of the "let's go to the bar and grab a big pizza and some beer" range. Less than a regular annual plate for any of my cars. It's good for driving to historic vehicle events and the occasional joyride. If a cop sees you driving it to work repeatedly at 8am, he will pull you over.
The regular classic plate is good for ten years, but if you have an old annual plate from the year the car was made (like a 1972 plate for your 1972 W109), you only have to pay one registration fee for as long as you own the car.
$100 a year is mind-boggling to me for a car that can't be used for daily transportation.

WOW! what a ripoff!
I grouse about the 240D going from $16/yr to $50/yr for regular plates.

Around here you can only drive classic plate cars to Special Events, or to
the shop for repairs. Registration is $100/yr. and there is no inspection.
