Registering out of state new car

Hi all:

Been a Broward County resident for two years, have FL DL and residence. I'm bringing down a new car purchased out of state at a new car dealer. I traded in a Florida-registered car and have the plates. I've checked the DMV and other sites and still have a couple questions.
-Do I have to get a VIN inspection even tho I have a new car dealer bill of sale with the VIN?
-I realize I need to pay sales tax, but what forms of payment are accepted at the DMV?
-Will they let me keep my plates? They're one of those special 'save the something' conservation plates.
