Any registration, new or renewal in NV requires a current smog pass. Only exception is for classic cars.

Smog checks are not required in the entire state. Even remote areas of Clark and Washoe counties are exempt.

True. But tricky. Have to establish an address somewhere like Pahrump which is common for people beating the Clark County need. Unless you have a good friend in the area it is tough and I do not think I would go there after getting a ticket with a Clark County address.

if I am reading this right... you have a car from out of state, a 2011, and have a smog from that state....

no you need a Nevada out of state inspection and a Nevada smog before you get plates. you turn in your out of state title, pay a title fee and are issued a Nevada title (the title may not be required since the car is 8 years old)

It has on the court page that these traffic tickets are considered a misdemeanor charge.
No way will you go to jail for this. It might cost you a butt-load, but you won't be in the pokey.

No need to get a new title if the car is titled in your name (well, at least it used to be like that. I've got all sorts of cars/bikes with California titles registered in Nevada). You will need an inspection, smog and proof of current insurance.

Go Do It!

Yes we need a nevada registration and tags...and inspection etc
We have Nevada car insurance already.

We are. Been setting up lawyer stuff and waiting til we have the funds after rent to do the rest.
First need the smog test which will cost us $27. Hoping it passes cos otherwise replacing parts will be a huge problem cost wise. Not everyone has $1000 laying around freely. It's a 2006 Mazda tribute....been driven A LOT..many cross country trips as it was also hubbys parents car before we had it and we've moved a lot, etc.
So..doubting itll pass. Anyone know of any places here that work with people on affordable smog emissions carr part repairs?

If you have a 2006 vehicle, it will pass as long as the check engine light is not on. Even if the check engine light is on, it may still pass, but often not.

The vehicle has all the necessary emissions checking components on it and the smog station just basically reads the vehicle's own computer and roughly speaking, if it says it's ok, you pass.
