Per California law smog is the responsibility of the seller. Though lots of people sell cars without smogging them and leave the burden to the buyer. Thing is very few people go back and tell the person they are buying the car from "hey you need to smog it". Usually because they get a deal on the car anyways.

i talk to a buddy of mine (who has had numerous ref tickets) and he said that he has used the sale of a car to get out of a ref ticket. just told the judge he sold the car showed him a bill of sale and the judge dismissed it.
