I can answer that question for you. A CA resident cannot register a 3 years old or newer FEDERAL vehicle or motorcycle in CA with 7500 miles or less. If you try to bring one of these vehicles into CA, it will first have to pass smog, and if it does, a Certificate of Non-compliance will be issued. This certificate notifies the Air Resources Board that someone is trying to register this type of vehicle and to place a hold on the registration. The hold will allow the vehicle owner to explain the reason for trying to bring a NEW federal vehicle into the CA. Example, you were offered a job in CA and you're bringing this vehicle in or you're a resident of CA and you were in an accident out of state and the only replacement vehicle was a new Federally emissions certified vehicle. Here is the reasoning: For a vehicle manufacturer to obtain approval be allowed to offer for sale in the US and to allow their vehicles to be driven on US roadways, 10% of the fleet must pass the Federal Test Procedure (a rigorous 3 day emissions test in an air tight laboratory using a lab grade dynomometer). That 10% is a vehicle that receives an emissions label that states: Meets USEPA and CA emissions standards for a specific model year (ex 2005). Also, CA emissions is a chargeable option for most vehicle maufacturers. Therefore, CA is the reason (for example) that a new Buick Park Avenue Ultra is an approved US model. The result is CA has very strict rules regarding the registration of New Federally Emissions Certified Vehicles (3 years or newer with less than 7500 miles) into California.
