Cars sold here that are sold in the US are mostly compliant with EPA standards, except for the diesels... most of which don't have the urea-injection necessary to pass US standards.

Gasoline cars with stratified ultra-lean burn also don't meet US standards, but thanks to our suspect gasoline quality, manufacturers aren't keen to bring those in here, either.

Almost all new cars with electronic fuel injection, be they gasoline or diesel, are OBDII compliant.
