I wouldn't title the car in FLA then retitle in NY, the cost has to be way high (due to redundancy). First because there's a surcharge for a new title in FLA if you're not replacing a car (if you were just replacing the title xfer & plates would be about $150 + sales tax). Next they'd probably hassle you for no FLA license. You can however drop by a DMV in FLA and get a 10 day temp plate for a couple of bucks, avoid sales tax here, etc and with the purchase price documented, NY should recognize the car based on price paid.

One caveat, this is based on believed info, not something I have actually tested myself. However, if you give me some specifics I can call the DMV and confirm any details you want, then post back.
