: unconstitutional about the fee? It seems to me that the idea behind the
: fee is to discourage Californians from buying cars in states with
: less stringent pollution requirements and transporting them to California.

If one brought in a car from out of state that produced the same emissions
as a "California car", they would also be penalized.  I saw 
something wrong with this issue.  Additionally, simply "taxing" a person
for a noncompliant car had zero effect on the emissions.  It was
just a method to extort money from people IMHO.
