Yeah, moved again, lol.

I'm in Attica, NY, somewhere in between Buffalo and Rochester. The only Supra I've seen so far was a white pre-89 mk3 just sitting all lonely in the back of someones yard.

I'll be keeping my car registered in Florida as I don't even want to bother with NY emission laws. From what Ive read it's confusing, I'm not sure if only 1996 cars and newer cars are smogged or what... if anyone can enlighten me that'd be great, otherwise I'm just keeping the FL tag.

"THE LOW-ENHANCED EMISSIONS INSPECTION FOR THE UPSTATE AREA

A 1995 or older model year vehicle, or a vehicle that weighs 8,501 lbs. or more is required to have a low-enhanced emissions inspection if the vehicle:

* Is registered in the Upstate Area, and
* Is not exempt from emissions inspection.

The Upstate Area includes the 53 counties located north of the New York City Metropolitan Area (NYCMA). The NYCMA includes New York City, Nassau County, Suffolk County, Rockland County, and Westchester County. The Upstate Area includes all other counties in NYS.

To conduct a low-enhanced emissions inspection, the inspection station must be licensed by the NYSDMV to conduct NYVIP inspections.
What does the low-enhanced emissions inspection include?

The low-enhanced emissions inspection includes a gas cap check and a visual inspection to find evidence of tampering and to prevent malfunctions in the air pollution control devices. The test is done annually at the same time as the safety inspection."

Oh well, looks like I'm keeping the FL tag, lol.


WHy in the world did you move from warm sunny florida to cold ass NY?

Well, originally we hadmoved from FL to SC in April, but things weren't going well, and we didn't have any friends or family there. I really did not want to go back to FL for a number of reasons, one of which was outrageous rent.

So we moved to NY to be with my best friend. Can't bitch, I have a 2,500sq ft house that we're paying $200 amonth to live in. :icon_bigg


p.s. I love the snow, also gives me a reason to shut the Supra down for a fewmonths and give her the restoration lovin she needs.

Dear Lord, Tanya! Split the difference and move to VA. At least Mike and I can give you a hand with your Supra if you did!
