What is the best way to gift a car (almost new) to my friend, minimizing use tax and registration fees?

There's a detailed FAQ page on this on the CA DMV site:http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/brochures/howto/htvr3.htmYou Are Exempt from Paying Use TaxNormally, use tax is due at the time of any regular transfer. However, because your vehicle was acquired as a gift, you are not charged use tax. To apply for this exemption, you must complete and submit the Statement of Facts (REG 256) with your application.But...How Much Will It Cost to Register the Vehicle?Total amount of fees due will be determined when you submit your application to the DMV. If the transfer fee is not paid within 30 days of transfer, a penalty fee is added. If the vehicle is not currently registered, and a Notice of Planned Non-Operation (REG 102) is not on file with the DMV, you may be held responsible for past due registration fees and penalties. For further information regarding Planned Non-Operation and vehicle registration, refer to the information in "Reporting Vehicle Status".So, it looks like your friend can avoid the Use Tax, but probably not the registration fees...to find out how much those might be, the same site has a calculator available:http://www.dmv.ca.gov/FeeCalculatorWeb/index.jsp
