This is starting to get messy. Finally got a call back as requested from Sacramento. He's looked over the paperwork, said I'm short some $200, a form and the smog test. Said to expect a letter from them outlining this and to setup the DMV appointment for the missing items and the vehicle inspection.

Then, the local smog place has a hard time doing the smog on the BRZ since he is unfamiliar with where stuff are on a BRZ and that it is new seeing how they do mostly 6 year old cars. Took much longer than usual trying to find the emissions pieces but eventually did not charge me extra eventhough he should have.

Then I get to DMV on my appointment, the lady had a brief conversation with the supervisor. Poof, I'm at another desk receiving a Ca. temp permit for 2 months. I asked why but got vague answers that 'hopefully' I'll get something in the mail within 2 months. The other lady said something about them being backlogged and again, 'hopefully' they'll get to my paperwork soon. I taught they already got to it?? Something tells me I should have waited for the letter being that my car's info is not fully in their system yet. Nobody looked at my smog cert, my car nor ask for the $200. AND I still don't have plates.

I guess I'll have to pay DMV a revisit in a few weeks.
