Here in Texas(Houston) fees run about 300-500 bucks from what I have seen. Tittle, plates, registration, documentation and other fees.

State to state it's going to vary. My build (with tentative invoice) in SoCal shows a $497 registration (estimate...it's from the DMV), $80 doc fee, and then about $50 of other fees that are also CA specific. The only one that is possibly not 100% official is the $29 electronic filing fee (part of the $50 I just mentioned), but even if it's BS i'm not going to question it at $29.

When I bought my E92 M3 in Maryland, I paid $100 Doc Fee, $20 Filing Fee, $15 Title and Registration and $4 tire fee. $139 beyond the price of the car (for which I paid invoice) and tax.

For this M4, in New Jersey, I'm paying $369 Doc, $298 NJ Luxury Tax, $6 Tire tax, and $400 Registration. $1073 plus the price of the car and sales tax. Freaking New Jersey....
