Additionally, those long stretches should allow you to bed your brakes in properly!

2. Seeing as you are in California, make sure the car you’re purchasing is CA legal, with the necessary CA emissions sticker but also the copper-free brakes option. Those options are not typically selected by dealers outside of our state, and I’d hate for you to bout the car only to realize you have to get rid of it because the DMV will refuse to issue you the registration.

I've been through this with a few out of state dealers, I believe most Camaros produced today are 50 state compliant (emissions wise). I'd had a dealer in IL willing to sponsor me for brake parts even though the car wasn't copper free. The DMV has no idea and there are no limitations for registration in this regard. My only issue was if the car needed warranty work on the braking system, I'd need to take out of state.
The car I'm looking at has the copper free setup and compliant ..
