, Is this car going to be licensed in CA? If so you may run into problems with the smog certification, which CA motor vehicles will require that the car meet or exceeds CA emission standards.Back to the drive being land locked due to the Pacific Ocean, I dream of doing a cross country drive.

Regardless of what the sticker and Chevrolet say those folks living in the kingdom of Kali-forn-ia have to have their cars which are bought from out-of-state dealers smog checked. Several of those people have posted here in other threads.
The problem is, all have reported that no one in that state yet has a smog tester that is CAN compliant, so the car has to be taken to a smog referee and they sign off on it without checking anything. Makes me glad I don't live there. Talk about government run amuck. Oh and they charge for all that nonsense.

The reason they don't check anything is because of the sticker that's on all C6's.

That same sticker is on all C5s also. Bring a C5 to Kali-forn-ia and see what the smog folks do with it. Hint: They check it for emissions.
The reason they are not checking C6s is they don't have the proper test equipment yet.
