RE: cal smog exemption

["TJ Noto" <tj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Interesting information...........so any 30 year old car driven less
than 12,000 miles is exempt?  That's interesting......I guess we all get
to buy more Alfas so that like Stefano, we can never put 12,000 miles on
all of them thereby exempting all of them from the law!
