smog

I was talking with a buddy and he was telling me that the 08`s are gonna be smog checked (in Cal).As I`m looking to get one I`m curious,I`ve searched and couldn`t find a thing about it other than emissions.Who`s outta whack here?

If you mean an emissions check? then I dont doubt it that they will require an emissions check, after all CA is trying to lead the way into the "Green" future.

Well, since the engine has a 5 year/100,000 mile warranty, you should be good for at least that long if you haven't modded the motor and blown the warranty. IMO!!

I think this one is an "excuse me ?' opinion. What red blooded state politician would NOT demand that your vehicle be inspected. Hell, even the toyota prius is under scrutiny from what I have heard out there in the "fruit and nut" state. It is simple; it costs YOU money and it gives THEM money. Simple economics.
