You guys living in states with vehicle inspections need to get those abolished. You can do it. Florida got rid of them two decades ago.

I went to register mine here in Florida last week .I took the car with the old owners plates ,I had been told twice that I had to have the car there for visual inspection of odometer.
They stated that I was breaking the law to drive it there without current registration, but could not give me an answer on how I could get it registered without driving it there it ??!!

You could get a form from the DMV and have a police officer inspect it for you.That's what i did to register my FE gts i got from out of state.I live in South FL and the car was from Colorado.:2tu::2tu::2tu:

About 4 hours after picking up the car last year I was in the middle of a massive storm. Saw two cars rolled, and kept thinking about what everyone on the site said about rain. Now this. :rolaugh:

MI has no inspection, I run temp tags since the car is off the road for 5 months a year. Had to go pick up the new temp.

Yeah, and still passing everyone. I was doing 80-85mph for the majority of the drive. :headbang:

Viper in a snowstorm!!!!:omg:
When I walked out of my dad's house, I was like '***, is it snowing'? then had to drive towards lake Michigan. The cabin was very comfortable in these conditions, no windows fogged, wipers (Bosch Icons) did great, lighting was fine, etc.

Looks great even in a snow storm !!!!
Thanks. :D
