CA/NV Registration options

[HowardV]

I looked at a used SPF Cobra today (to buy) which is currently registered in Nevada (I'm in CA). The price was right, but my BIG concern was that it's titled in NV and I can't drive it here until I file for SB100 next year. I was told to start a Nevada Corp. and register the car in NV under the company name (use a friend's address who lives in NV or get a PO Box). Then I could drive it all I want in CA since it's under the business name in NV.

I'm looking into what it takes to start a Corp. in NV and it appears to be fairly simple and cheap. Just wanted to get some advice on this. Come January 2005, I would attempt at an SB100 registration in CA. But I don't want to buy the car and have to wait 8 months to drive it! These friggin CA laws are just ridiculous. I'm HAPPILLY WILLING to pay all taxes and registration fees, I'm not doing this to save money - I don't want to cheat anyone.

Any feedback would be appreciated.
