Sup guys . i just joined the airforce. ive been miltary brat all my life i got a few questions though. I have a 00 ex now. Im trying to stay state side for now but if i get stationed somewhere overseas besides japan is them shipping the cars over a big deal or is it common? Im putting down travis AFb in cali. Cause i hate the snow and i heard its nice there and its hot. How about smog and everything if i have a swap but im registered in NJ. Cause im for sure putting in my swap before i leave. I dunno if any of you guys been through the stuff let me know . Thanks stay safe soilders

 

I dont know, but would like to. Probably would get a better response in GDD.

BUMP

 

smog sucks in CA. well, it depends on how good you do your swap. you can always get your engine B.A.R'd. it will cost around $1000 to ship a car over here. thats how much it cost for me to ship a 92 hatchback si from NY.

 

thanks

 

whats this bard? is it bad? lol

 

I was under the impression that the military will ship your car where you go unless you cant bring it (like Korea for example). I havent been overseas yet so I am not 100%. Call TMO.

Bar is a good reason not to bring your car

Also I am almost positive you can register your car in a different state and not be covered by Cali smog and laws. Since you are military you dont have to conform to the if you in a state more than 90 days you have to register your car there and get a Cali license. All you need is an address. I remember when i was re-enlisting I changed my residency to avoid 8% Cali tax on it and the JAG officer asked did I have an addy in Florida I was liek Yeah, my dad lives there. He told me to register my car there and get a FL license just in case (I never did, but I know you can).

Exaclty what I was going to say. If you're in the military, since you move around a lot, you can pick a place as your place of residence, so long as you have an address there. You can then pay that tax and have your car registered there.

I'd bet you will take that back when A-10's are circling over your head.
