There is a slim chance that I may move from the midwest to SoCal. I have a question about emissions testing. Is there an age limit for cars where they are not tested or phased standards? The reason I ask is I have a grey market 83 911 SC and have no idea what its current performance is. I was just curious what the deal was before I head west. Thanks for the info!

That is the direct link to the home page of the California DMV. Just search the site.

Sorry, your car is too young, as far as I know, to fall under the "Grandfather" clause by a few years. It will have to be smogged.

You could also ask other people from So. Cali, I'm afraid I just don't know. When I brought my'85 in from Oklahoma, I had to have the car depowered by about 10%, to meet and pass smog emissions.
