2000 Toyota Camry from Indiana Need to Pass California Smog Check

What does a 2000 Toyota Camry from Indiana need to pass a smog check in California?

Im purchasing a 2000 Toyota Camry from eBay and im concerned about what I might need to do in order to make sure it will pass smog check in California.

Answer:

There is a difference with California legal and Federal legal emission requirements. However if this particular 2000 Toyota Camry is equipped with all the Federal required emission components (which it was came from the dealership with) it can pass the California smog check and register with the CA DMV. The rule is any USED vehicle which is equipped with the necessary Federal Emission Components is eligible for California registration as long as the vehicle's exhaust emissions fall within California's limits and the vehicle's emission system has not been tampered with. posted by SmogTips Support
