Does a STAR smog check cost more than regular?

At Cal Smog Network stations:

Not automatically — BAR doesn't set a price difference between STAR and regular stations. Each shop posts its own price.

• STAR and non-STAR stations both set their own posted prices — there's no state-mandated STAR markup
• Some vehicles are required by your DMV renewal notice to test at a STAR station, regardless of price
• See our posted price on-site or on our services page

Prices are set per station, not by BAR — see our posted price for the exact cost.
