Make sure the DOT, EPA, Customs, and the DMV are all current.

On the other hand maybe FNA was right all along, maybe there are some real differences between US and Euro cars...

Speak with George at G&K Automotive...They are a Registered Importer & DOT/EPA approved, he will be able to assist you regarding a Euro from another state...FYI the CARB certificate is @$2500. I don't think Art's comment relates to an imported Euro. 714-545-9503 arthur chambers (Art355) Intermediate Member Username: Art355 Post Number: 1679 Registered: 6-2001 Posted on Monday, May 19, 2003 - 8:36 pm:    7500 miles on the odometer. California won't register without at least that.

Having lived in the east and then the west, I can assure you the rust issue was something you guys in CA aren't as aware.

There is a car in FL and it is Euro. And I have been scared that some issues may arise where the car possibily can be denied registration in CA or could become costly. Can anyone shine insight to this? What can I do to ensure that the registration and titling will go smoothly without buying the car first? Also anyone know of a trustworthy independent inspector out in the West Palm Beach area? May need assistance soon. Thanks in advanced Jimmy
