Trading in my TX 2010 GT to a California dealer. Will it pass emissions test?

Anymore emissions out here are run by the state.

I'd say you've got no worries with 3k on a new Mobile 1 change. Definitely pull the cat backs if nothing else to sell those here on the MF and recoup some of your gas money
Allright, so no oil change nesessary when I get to cali? Tommorrow is the day I find out. If the dealership manager is cool with the non-cali emissions trade in, on a used car, I will close the deal. $27900 for a 2012 gt premium with 515 miles on it. $24000 for my 2010 gt premium with 19k on it. The cars look identical down to the candy red paint, so my wife is confused why the hell Im doing it. But 100 horses matter!

Haha...my wife doesnt get it either, but we gotta do what we gotta do. I hope the deal goes through and I wouldnt worry a bit about the oil change.
