I purchased the vehicle from a used car lot and paid to get the dmv processed and the smog check was done prior to purchase.after purchasing the vehicle, the owner told me he was suing the auto repair business next door because he was falsifying the smog checks on car the used car dealer took to him.my vehicle, i learned was not owned by him when he sold it to me.my vehicle had two pink slips with the orginal being in mississippi.as a police officer i investigated it with dmv from june of 2000 to february of 2002 when i was able to talk the guy in mississippi into releasing the vehicle.i never needed a smog check until july 2002.

I owned a 1989 toyota supra turbo from 1989 to 1999.in the mid- to late-1990's i experienced one instance in which my gas pedal got pinned to the floor by an aftermarket floor mat that had shifted out of position.this occurred at a large intersection on the far north side of indianapolis, as i was approaching a left-turn arrow.when i took my foot off the accelerator to make the turn, the vehicle continued to accelerate full-throttle.i quickly determined that i was not going to be able to make the left turn safely, so i veered to the right and went straight through the intersection.then i turned the key off and coasted into a parking lot, very frightened by what had just happened.i got out of the vehicle and looked down, and immediately saw that the floor mat had shifted forward and snagged the bottom of the gas pedal when i pressed it down to accelerate.through sheer luck there were no other cars in the intersection at the time, and my quick reaction avoided any accident.i threw the floor mats away, and made sure to replace them with ones that were fastened down.i never experienced the problem again.
