I'm interested too but doesn't sound right. I've just moved to CA.

LOL, where did your friend hear that? The State of California requires a front and rear plate always. Why would we be exempt just because we have a turbo?

I see some people putting their plate on the dashboard, is it legal?

Nope.

CA Vehicle Code 11713.17.
(B) The person understands that California law requires a license plate to be displayed from and securely fastened to the front of the motor vehicle...
