You're correct they don't, and actually in many states, the cars ARE emissions compliant as ithey sit because there is no emissions testing in many states, or the standards are not as high as CARB.

For those preferring to opt out of the VW fix and join the 'rolling coal' club, I would expect that relicensing will be a problem, as well as any warranty claims for those still under warranty.

From a dealer motivation standpoint, absolutely.
From a security of warranty and resale value perspective, time will tell.

Looking at the notice of violation(posted by JCL above) EPA has a a more important authority in approving vehicle sales in the US. They successfully strong armed VW which was forced to admit cheating.

Right. Pulling their certification for importing new cars is not the same as prohibiting registration of used and already in use vehicles. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. While I do believe this will probably all blow over soon, I am glad I don't currently own a TDI due to the up coming potential hassle.
