買二手車與smog check - 洛杉磯

最近要買一台1998年的Toyota corolla
不確定是否需要在過戶前的90天內做smog check
賣家跟我說每年做一次就好
我在加州DMV網站上查

When you transfer ownership of a vehicle that is four or less model years
old, a smog certification is not required; however, a smog transfer fee is
collected from the new owner. When a vehicle is more than four model years
old, the seller is required to obtain smog certification when transferring
ownership of a vehicle UNLESS certification was obtained within the last 90
days or the vehicle is:

* Hybrid
* 1975 year model or older
* Diesel powered
* Electric
* Natural gas powered and has a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of
14,001 lbs. or more
* Motorcycle
* Trailer
* Vessel
* Being transferred between family members (spouse, domestic partner,
parent, child, sibling, grandparent, or grandchild) or by court order. A
Statement of Facts form (REG 256)(PDF) must be completed for the exemption;
however, if registration renewal fees are due, the smog exemption may not
apply.


意思是四年以上的車子
在某些條件下不一定需要做smog check才能過戶?
只要前一次的smog check沒問題就ok嗎 (不必在90天內)
我不確定這台車是否有符合哪個條件
如果確定需要做smog check
可以要求賣家付這筆錢嗎

謝謝
