Be Sure You Can Register it in California The Bottom Line

If you are a California resident and acquire a new car, truck or motorcycle from another state, it must be certified to meet California smog laws in order to be registered here. This includes certain diesel powered vehicles. DMV cannot accept an application to register a vehicle in California that does not qualify for registration (Health and Safety Codes [H&SC] §§43150 – 43156.)
What Is Considered a new Vehicle?

California considers any vehicle with less than 7,500 miles on the odometer at the time of purchase or trade by a California resident or business to be a new vehicle. This holds true whether or not the vehicle has been registered in another state.
Aren't all Vehicles California Certified?

Not all new vehicles are manufactured to be sold in California residents or businesses. Many manufacturers make vehicles to be sold in the other 49 states. These vehicles (49-State) are made with smog equipment that meets federal emission standards, but not California standards. California certified (50-State) vehicles are made to be sold to California residents.
Check the Label

To find out whether a car, truck or motorcycle is California certified, check the emission label under the hood. For a motorcycle check the frame or refer to your owner's manual. The label should read that the vehicle conforms to California regulations, or that it is legal for sale in California.
Exemptions

There are a few exemptions included in the law. As a California resident you may be able to register a 49-State vehicle if it was:

• Obtained as part of a divorce, inheritance, or a legal separation settlement
• Purchased it to replace your California registered vehicle stolen while you were using it out of state.
• Purchased it to replace your California registered vehicle that was destroyed or made inoperative beyond reasonable repair while you were using it out of state.
• An emergency vehicle, pursuant to California Vehicle Code § 27156.2 and 27156.3.
• Registered by you in the state of your last active military service outside California.
• A street motorcycle or motor-driven cycle year model 2005 and older with an engine less than 50 cubic centimeters (cc) displacement. Beginning January 1, 2006, street motorcycles and motor-driven cycles year model 2006 and newer, with engines less than 50 cc displacement, require an emission label certifying them to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency emission regulations, and may be registered regardless of mileage.

All of our vehicles we have incoming have 50 state emissions so you can register them in california even if it has under 7500 miles.

Are you sure about that? Even though it's 50 state legal, since it's purchased in NV and the tax, doc and title are applied based on the CA residence, the DMV would consider it an out of state vehicle.

As a consumer, I would check with the DMV first! Not saying you personally but if they did indeed buy it in NV, you'll get your commish and the buyer would be shit out of luck left having to deal with the consequences once the he signed.

I have sold pleanty of cars to Californai residence. The way it is done we do not charge our tax to california residence. We give you a temporary permit to drive the vehicle for a period of time so you can get the vehicle back to california. Once you register the vehicle in california you would pay the tax at the dmv.

Oh ok, good to know. However, that is still a good 4hr+ drive. Aside from the availability, what's the benefit from buying in NV? Not trying to troll, just a honest question.

Basicly it is just because of availability. Plus you will be one of the first to drive down the strip in the brand new FR-S.

I thought Toyota already conducted their Death Valley, triple digit desert tests!

Good to know that you can buy cars in NV and I wonder if AZ works as well? This is just me but I can't justify buying a new car and driving it steadily for 5 hrs back to SoCal.

My boss buys cars in AZ and NV all the time.

some dealerships will even defer reg fees to the intended state.
