NO. As long as all the documents are current it is not illegal. Business travelers do this all the time. Example: a salesman works for ABC Co. headquartered in Calif. He flies to Chicago and rents a car from Hertz. The car has Florida plates (not uncommon since rental vehicles are driven all over the place and dropped off). Then he drives to Illinois, Ohio and PA on his sales route. There is no violation of any state law as long as everything is up to date and correct.
Maybe in your state, but not in all states. We have lived all over the country and several require the vehicle to be tagged and your DL to be in the same state. Others require the vehicle to be in the state you are claiming for insurance purposes...you can't store it in state A and insure it from a company in state B.

Rental vehicles fall into a different category...they cannot reasonably expect a renter to have a DL and tag and be physically in the same state.
