Default How long did it take you to get your title from the DMV?

Here's my story:

Paid off my S2000 in Oct

Got the title from the credit union releasing the lean in early Nov.(out of state and not part of the Electronic Lein and Title program)

Mailed to DMV with a check for title transfer fee on Nov 13

Check cleared my bank on Dec 19

New title arrives in the mail today - Feb 15

Over 3 Months!

Wow, now that is some efficient operation...



Anyone else have to wait this long?






Oh and also I've been absent a while...

I didn't have a loan but I got my car in Sept. and got the title a few weeks ago. The car was from out of state though.

for this car it took 2 weeks for the title to arrive, it was purchased certified from galpin honda. It didn't have license plates since it was from out of state and the personalized plates took about 3 months to receive.

3-5 years? You're giving the DMV too much credit.
