Buy NEW and you wont have to worry about BS smog for 5 years! :cheers:

I'm sure by the time 5 years rolls around you will be in another car. I'm hitting up year 3 in May and already wanted a new car since 2014. :headbonk:
I'm aware of the 5 year rule. That's why I mentioned the CHP. Having a loud exhaust gives them probable cause to check your engine bay for aftermarket parts. In theory they can have your car towed on the spot for this occurrence. Either way you will have to have your car returned to stock and inspected at a Ref station in order to get it back on the road.

Maybe get a radar and don't hammer the car when cops are around? Tbh, I think cops only pull over the import crowd for obnoxiously loud exhausts. I have a bike that's cammed/exhaust, i wear earplugs to ride because it is fucking loud, guess I'm just lucky haven't been pulled over yet.

If you bought it new you should be okay. If you got the car in December maybe your registration will come around august/september. If there are no smog requirements you're good.
