In the US? This isn't common. I've heard of things like this to register your car but not to keep it.

There's no laws in the USA where they'll repossess your car if you don't pay registration fees. They just don't allow it to be on the road legally and you'll get ticketed.

I own vehicles in CA. There is no property tax for vehicles in CA. I can guarantee you that. I specifically own vehicles that I don’t renew with the state and there’s no problems with that.

Do you pay a vehicle license fee on those vehicles?

I don't pay anything, man. That's my point. I don't have to as long as I don't put them on public roads. You can race them on the track or do whatever you want with them.
