Actually, if I bought your 1965 Cobra for $250,000 - that's a good deal for a vintage, original Cobra is such fine shape, and CA issued me the title of my newly acquired 1965 Cobra. Yeehaw, I just bot a $1/2M car for $250K!!! I even have an official state document that says it's a 1965 Cobra - if CA recognizes it as an 1965 Cobra, then it must be...right? Then I learn that it is not an original 1965 Cobra, but in fact a "replica" built in 2004 (for example). I got ripped off! But wait, CA says it's a 1965 - hmmm... The seller is long gone, laughing his way to the bank. I'll need to recoup my loss, so I'll just sue CA - per their official documentation, I should have purchased a 1965 Cobra, but the state failed to do due dilligence and misrepresented the vehicle. The state allowed the seller to misrepresent the vehicle, and therefore they are responsible for my loss.
The state does not want any more of these law suits...
Honestly, if you want to bring your vehicle to CA, then you need to follow the current laws in CA to do so. Yes, we can all agrue that the laws suck, but there's not a lot we can do about it. Heck, even SEMA can't seem to do anything about it.
