... Hills, that is. Swimming pools. Movie stars.

My beautiful and incredibly intelligent daughter will soon be graduating from the halls of the Ivy League and has accepted a job in the Inland Empire region of California. She plans to move all her stuff (including a boyfriend) from here in New Jersey to there.

The question I have is how does one bring a car from the normal world into the People's Republic of California? Must a car have originally been built for import to that strange land or can we mere mortals simply drive our ordinary cars there and register/inspect them for legal street duty?

Thanks in advance for any guidance

Best Reegards,
Rob
