Thanks. I have been in contact with Oregon dmv and our emissions testing. Oregon registration is a breeze. Basically just inspect the car exists and that you have a manufacturer certificate of origin and you are good to go. Also deq our emissions testing said they can't test a car that would be registered as a 2018 but had a 1992 ecu as the computer will prompt for a obd2 and a 2018 eco code. So they recommend a SP plate which is a special interest vehicle plate that is legal to drive on the road as long as it is mainly for racing, car shows, meets, etc. And limited street driving. This allows you to completely bypass emissions as well as alot of ticky tack things such as windshield, lights, fenders ect. Hopefully that all holds true when I go to register
Do they have any tips if you're planning to daily drive? I'm in the greater Portland area and I'm considering a build. I'll lease an electric smart car from work in the off season.

Sorry you asked this a while ago I just dont update this thread, just my YouTube channel and Instagram. You can register in Portland as a 2018 exomotive exocet and will have 4 years of no deq because it is a new car, after that you are screwed unless you go special interest. |
