Thank you for the info on where to find the emissions sticker on a Boxster, and a big Thank You to thstone for the pic and the info about all Boxster years being 50 State cars. That should make things much easier if I find an out of state car.
Qckslvr, CA DMV disagrees with you that I can be a CA resident, bring in a 49 State car from outside CA, and have it smogged/registered... or I missed it somewhere.
