i don't see a problem with that. There is a 3K mile a yr limit. I kno collector's reg isn't supposed to be a partial use reg, but that is what they made it when they put that limit on it. You were aloud to register any car as a "collector" the only catch is you can't drive more then 3K a yr. What did they expect was going to happen? I could see if there was no limit, then fine. You have to draw the line on the kind of cars or else ppl will expolit the 'ish outa it. I'm just sayin if you want to limit your $30K car to 3K miles a yr of driving and "collect" it, then that should be ur choice. Why does the state have to get involved with EVERYTHING you do???!!!

Exactly. It was their own stupidity that led them to where they are today. They didn't set it up right in the first place.
As you keep saying, it's purely up to an individual to determine what they think is "collectable" and what isn't.
However:
NJ is allowing people with vehicles that THEY DEEM to be collector vehicles to have special privileges. It's not our right to get special treatment, just like it's technically not our right to have a driver's license. You can choose to be part of the program but then you have to play by the program's rules.
They don't have to offer any special programs. They could just say EFF you all and force all vehicles to pass today's emissions testing. Thankfully that's not the case.
