Right now there is a 205 on ebay for sale in California. To be frank, im not trying to incite a debate on legalities but instead would like to know, who would jump the gun and try to buy this thing?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyota-Celi...c#ht_506wt_1165

Its vin-swapped, the real deal, and supposedly clean as a whistle....Personally i wouldnt but it, but im sure some of you on this site would.

Well I know that the police in some states have this new thing on the computer that when it reads the license plate, it tells them when the vehicle was inspected and some numbers along with it that correlate between the two. But that's just in states that require inspection stickers.
