westgate chev has a GTO on the lot.....

(for americans reading this, and opening up a fresh can of forum flame, Canada doesnt have the GTO, and just recently the laws were changed to allow them to be legal up here)

 

Thats crazy! Was it a HP thing or a MPG thing or what?

 

thats cool for our neighbors up north

 

low speed front impact testing.

the US does its test at 2.5mph
canada used to do it at 5mph,
cars like the GTO, and EVO, sustained to much damage at 5mph frontal impact to be allowed in.

canada has now harmonised its safety regs to match the US.

 

sweet deal, it'll be nice to see a few of them around.

 

damn! if this only happened a few months ago!

 

ooh, what colour is it? And Steve, it's too, not to. ("sustained too much damage")

How much and how many K does it have? It's probably reserved for God anyway...

 

LOL awesome

 

haha 5mph? I wonder the damage you get into that at that low speed. I wish when someone hit my cobalt they were going 5mph and not 25mph.

 

so does that mean evo's will be welcomed there now?

 

Well, welcomed and being let in are two ways of looking at it. I prefer the "let in" route. But yes, fanbois are already kicking the streets up with them.

 

That is awesome for you guys! Congrats canadians!

 

lol. *in retard voice* Yay! We got GTOs and Evos now! Yay for us*
It only took what? Forever? Or somewhere in the mid 90s they strapped this law on us?

 

what year of gto haw much does it run

 

Took the U.S. years to get the evo as well because of the same reason.

Glad you crazies can get your hands on those cars now

 

Why in the world do some people think that HP is a limiting factor as to weather a car is street legal or not? NEWS FLASH!!!! HP has NOTHING to do with if a car is legal or not!

Now maybe you can get rid of that turd SS and get a real mans car! Oh and grow some chest hairs too! Chics dig it!

 

In Japan it did...


Deeeeeep breath in...deep breath out...

 

Japan isn't here.

 

Well beings he was asking why it wasn't allowed in glorious , he listed random reasons.

I have never heard of a car getting too bad of a fuel economy to be legal.

I am sure it will happen in the not so distant future...and Japan had a HP cap for awhile.

He was just throwing suggestive questions out there.

:feeds the Jackalope:

It will be ok

overpriced IMO

 

I wasn't getting on him per say, LOTS of people have been asking that question and I figure the more I post it being nonsence the more people it will reach.

That was a gentelmans agreement in Japan hence the Skyline R34 which broke that HP limit and laughed doing it.

Gas guzzler tax ring any bells?

Whats for dinner I'm hungry?

 

I have some Doritos

 

ooo I want one...

 

DAMN YOU GAS PRICES! I have always wanted one of these, damn it...

 

I average just under 20 mpg in my cammed gto. On the freeway I can get between 23-26 mpg. If it wasnt modded I would see around 27 maybe 28 mpg.

**** if any of you Canadians want my car I will sell it to you for a lot cheaper then 36k
