I suppose if the car is out of the state on the specific date you sign & date the form for, it's not really perjury per se, but it would also depend on what you write in your "statement of facts".

I guess if I drive my car to Oregon or something and then sign/date the form WHILE I'M THERE and send it in, technically it's not perjury. If the CA DMV is too stupid to ask the question "is there any reasonable way you can have the car back in CA for smog testing in the foreseeable future" or something, then they are bringing it on themselves to some extent. But it's still really stretching the limits of ethical behavior I'd say...

I hate this state's smog laws and the entire revenue-based scheme surrounding it, but this just makes me uncomfortable. Hell, three of my five vehicles are smog exempt anyway so I guess I don't care about complying too much for the other two.

Ya can always buy a pre-75 if it really bugs you ya know...
