   Anybody know what the rules for buying new and used cars out of
   California and bringing them back are? Smog? Reg? Tax?

Watch it... Unless it has California emissions (you can tell by two
little placards riveted under the hood) you will get hit with a flat
$300 Non-resident Smog Impact Fee (NSIF) on top of all other
registration fees/taxes...

By the way, the only way a car out of state would have CA emissions is
if that car were originally sold in California and then brought out of
state.  Other states can't normally get that "free" CA-required
option.
