If you live in CA, you need a CA driving license and CA registration. Theoretically, you should do that within 10 days of moving, if I remember correctly.

My sister did this and had her car registered for 3 years in florida when she lived in So Cal. never had any problems.

Definitley something you can pull-off fairly easily, but if you have an accident, you might get left holding the bag by your insurance, as its basically a form of fraud.

Be sure you don't claim a different state to your insurance agent/company, since they can totally deny your claims. As far as the state goes, they are unlikely to ever do anything more than fine you or give you a ticket if you caught via an accident or a pissy traffic cop.
