Hopefully a mod won't see this as a political topic.

 

You fit this. I think an S30 Z is as historic as any other car of the last 25 years.

 

[(3) A vehicle which was manufactured after 1922, is at least 25 years old, and is of historic interest.

 

I know Az is different than Ca but there law is similar. I just went in with collector car insurance and came out with collector/classic registration and will never have to go through emissions again. Collector/classic insurance is alot cheaper too.
