California SMOG exempt if I buy brand new OUTSIDE

[AutoDelight]

The argument will come down to time vs. money. What's more important? Haha

If you can save a few thousand dollars buying out of state, that is well worth it. Getting it smogged is $60 plus CHP verification of the VIN, and pay the tax you normally would pay (which will be less since your car is less)

I would pay california tax from where I am purchasing the car from.

as car as buying in california, i would love to, but everyone keeps scooping these supras up with a 5k mark up - i have no choice but to look else where.

Also, i dont mind doing the extra work, as long as I have the car and dont have to worry about smog for 8 years

Hamer Toyota has one, but it's a 2021 Red. If you want it, I don't see why they would hold on to a 2021.

Charles is the Fleet director there. I'm sure he can help with getting you one if you tell him Longo will soon have one for you at MSRP

Carmax has 2 2020 3.0s. One at $50998 with 15k miles in Austin, TX, and one at the same price, and 9k miles in Harrisonburg,VA. The one in Austin can be shipped. They’re not Premiums, though. I didn’t see that when I originally posted my response.

Recently purchased mine out of state. Paid dealer list price, got it smogged then took it to the DMV. At DMV they were able to verify my VIN, paid DMV fees and CA use tax. FYI they didn’t ask to see a bill of sale to verify the sale price so do with that info as you wish.

This is the way.

Or if you don’t mind paying a small fee you can smog the car and take all the documents to a licensed DMV partner that handles registrations. Fee for the convenience of not having to deal with the dmv.
