That kit can sod right off. 

Counterpoint: “Hurr durr It’s not scary” is a good way to end up Orlove’d or worse. There isn’t a 500+ hp car in production (existence) that doesn’t deserve respect. 

It’s cute that after being called out on how very wrong and illogical your post was, the only person you bothered replying to was yourself and did zero self-reflection to even consider that maybe, just maybe you’re wrong and what you “think” or “feel” has no bearing on what’s actually happening. Wake up, man.

LOL wut? This has been the law since 1966, and the world hasn’t come to an end.

exactly, thank you: “The funny thing, is that the Republicans fully support state’s rights, for conservative causes. For example, many states choose to make abortion more difficult to get thas is required by federal law.”

“Regardless of size, a state shouldnt have the power to dictate Federal Law.”

WTF?

You are dumb bud.

California was the first state to really limit emissions and require fuel efficiency, so when the Clean Air Act, and act of Congress passed by Nixon, CA was granted an exemption from the general rule that states can’t pass different standards. In part, this was due to politics, but it was also due to the fact that CA,…

California’s regulations apply only to cars sold in California and other states that voluntarily opt in.  

CARB was created to regulate CA’s emissions. Other states signed on because they wanted to follow the same standards. Has nothing to do with CA wanting to control the country.

Apparently smog was what made america great. Who could have known?

Yeah, but you’re Nobody.

But lower taxes, AMIRITE!?

This is really good advice. Also, the insurance on a 5k Camry is going to be like $250 per 6 months as opposed to around $500 per 6 months on the brand new 20k car.

But that makes too much sense. They want something NEW - NEW - NEW in order to not portrait the need for such common sense living.

My normal advice would be: go to Craigslist. Type “Camry” (or Accord/Civic). Buy the newest one you can for $5000.

I would absolutely love to - I should get on that, actually

How about a Jalopnik interview with the person(s) in charge of importation at NHTSA and EPA? I'm dying to know their level of car enthusiasm.

Why? For your safety, of course. Europeans die by the squillions because of unsafe cars with metric speedos and no tire-pressure stickers or seat belt dingers. The streets are littered with their corpses. Do you want to die, Raph? Think of the children!
