Just be sure it has a CA Emissions and you should have no problems, well at least from that perspective.

I think you are going to be in a unique situation. If I recall you are looking at coming to the states and buying a RV and TV and tour the states. I would call the state Department of Motor vehicles where you plan to buy and sell. You may have some unique issues not being a US resident.
I think your plan is great, just do as I do when I visit my Grand daughter in Ireland, keep in mind you need to drive on the OTHER side of the road. :)

You are correct with your recollections, but circumstances have changed our ideas a little.
We are Unique, but not alone. Many from Oz have done it and succeeded. I have researched purchasing as a non US resident and have no concerns, thanks anyway. It's the selling in another state I'm wondering about.
