u realize a gst has the exact same body.... and again.. its not a loop hole if u live, and have a dl in another state.. it is however illegal if you live and have a DL, and the car is registerd to you and is sitting in cali for x amount of time.. IF the car has a cali registration, then ur still screwed, and they will require you to do a smog..

so regardless of phyiscal location of the car, does it have a cali registration? and is your DL a differnt address, if so, and u get pulled over, they will tag you. you would then need to chose to change your DL to match the state reg, or change the reg of the car to match the DL..

so if u r car doesnt have a cali registration, then u havent found a loop hole lol..
