        The purpose of these bills is to help reduce CA's $16 billion deficit.
        Presumably that's why they're both in the tax and revenue code.  I don't
        have any more information beyond what was originally posted but I assume
        the fee increases would be included in the next registration renewal and
        certainly when a transfer of ownership occurs.  BTW, Governor Wilson 
backs
        both bills.

Yes, well, I know they're for revenue, but I wasn't clear what exactly was
being taxed. The market value of your car is already taxed as part of your
annual registration fee. Is this tax based on improvements to your 
vehicle like painting and engine renewal or what?

        You have lot of company.  

Yeah, but I'm *REALLY* sick of it.
