Question Registering out-of-state 97 SC400 in California

Hi there...thanks in advance for reading this post!

I'm looking to see if anyone out there has any experience bringing in a used vehicle to California? My vehicle is "used" (over 7500 miles) and in great condition with current registration (1997 SC400) and I'm wondering how much of a hassle (or not) it would be to register it in California, i.e. smog, title and fees, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Danny

you'll be fine. all you'll have to do is take it to a ref for brake and light inspection. then get it smogged and pay your current registration fees. don't stress you're safe. Unless you have modified ANY of your emission equipment. then u better fix that. If you're stock, your fine. =)

Hi JustChill...thanks for the reply! The car is bone stock and not modified, and I was worried about emissions (heard nightmare stories about spending $$$ to make it CA certified but those weren't Lexus cars).

Much appreciated!
