Honda Miata? DMV screw up on title... how shocking :-|

[Exodus_2pt0]

Just noticed that my registration for the Miata says 91 Honda Miata, when its a 96 and you know the make.

Also says this on the title. The Vin is correct, I would have thought they had a program to decode and fill it in?

FML. Back to the DMV. I swear if they try to charge me for another title I'm going to blow a gasket.

The first problem. Why did you buy a Miata?

Most likely you will need to take the car into the DMV for an inspection where you can have the title fixed. it'll be a huge pita.

Another WIN for VA DMV.

You will probably have to pay for a new title. They will make you blow a gasket. The miserable individuals who work at the local DMV take a certain pride in making people's lives difficult.

It's a hard job. It takes a special kind of person to work at the DMV :blowup:

SRSLY. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night after making hundreds of people angry every day.

not to mention they all are the slowest mofo's on this planet

There is a reason there is unanimous hate nation-wide for DMV workers

There shouldn't even be DMV workers, just all computers.

Black sheep here........but the DMV by my house is awesome, I go quite often as I can't seem to keep the same car for long, all the gals in there are super cool.

Just put an S2K motor in it and throw some honda badges on it. probably less of a headache

Around here if it is a newer title they just scan a bar code at the bottom and scan my barcode on my license and it spits out a new title with all the information. Seems impossible to screw up here.

Didn't you check the paperwork they handed you to check then hand it back to them?

[Exodus_2pt0]

They don't do that around these parts lol. They shove the title, tags, and registration in a bag and you run for the door as fast as possible.

I need to get my permanent stickers by the end of the month anyway so I'll address it then.

This. After waiting the average of two hours to get seen, you just zone out and head for the door.

Oh and as for the Miata mistake, I used to hate on them too.

Now that I've driven one for a while, I'm in love. Aside from a severe lack of power, they are pretty awesome.
