I'm all for it If I were a normal daily commuter.

I drive the speed limit, I rarely speed since gas is murder on my car.
But if it "limits" my car from it's potential when I want to test it on the track That's kinda bullshit.

Please no GTR ecu bullshit that takes off the limiter when you're on the track.

I was born a HUMAN. I was raised to test my limits, and break them. I refuse to conform to the general consensus because I'm a MAN. I am a Man with common sense. I believe in Darwinism and whatever the fuck those Church people believe in.

Tkaing my factory speed limiter is taking away my pride, soul, and dignity. I refuse to be sheltered, and I expect the same respect that everyone else in Europe gets. No drinking limits, and no speed limits on certain highways. I believe in paying the cop to get away from a ticket. I believe in attempting to kill myself by going way faster than the car should from the factory. I believe that China will take over the world.

Because I'm a man. I am Chinese Born Canadian.
Taking away my speed limiter is taking away my freedom.
So I say FUCK YOU to whoever agrees to this bill. We need more Burnouts (fuck Yeah) and less Commuter grocery getters that barely hit 150.

I have a 4 Liter V8 that was designed in the late 80's and was electronically limited to 260 (before I took it off). I expect my future cars to do more and better than that speed.

Because I am a Man. And I need the feeling of almost killing myself.
Otherwise, I would drive a Corolla.

No way the auto makers will allow this.

It's laughable to even consider that this may in fact happen.

Wait, what? So cars IN Germany? Or German cars here?...

Edit: No, you're wrong....It's 155 MILES per hour....equivalent to 249km/h......

FACTORY! lol

Not really. We require DRL's by law, and until recently we had different bumper regulations that auto makers had to abide by.

Yes, but then again certain cars were not sold in Canada due to the same bumper laws. ie MRS.

But to be honest, those cars are few and far between.

Too bad it was the best cars not allowed!!

Why didn't we get the evo when the US did? :cry:

and not for the bumper.... but cool cats will agree.... B13 SE-R. poor canada. not allowed the 510 of the 90s due to a seatbelt issue. luckily 3 or 4 of us RS members got to have fun in that ONE B13 SE-R in BC.

increasing the skill and awareness of drivers, on the other hand, will

there are in fact people who cant even negotiate a left hand turn from a standstill smoothly - have you ever seen ppl hop curbs? AND end up nearly on the other lane, doing 8km throughout the whole turn? (usually this is when shit happens, as they cant even see the other car turning right at the same time, thus resulting in the 2 parties getting shafted by ic fucking bc the next day)

in fact, take a stroll down any parking lot, and observe how many wheels are curbed, how many cars are dinged from low speed impacts. for every 1, slit your wrist with a razor. by the time you are done 1 parking lot, you have probably killed yourself enough times to cover 50% of bc's population

what Chopstick is trying to say here, is that speed is less an issue than, proper awareness (how fast to go in a for astro van on a rainy day with 3 shitty bald tires, 2 underinflated, 1 over inflated, on a twisty highway road, wearing no seatbelts, thinking he can stop in time if the car he's drafting decides to slam on the brakes)

just googie top gear finland, and you'll see the light

so instead of teaching retarded monkeys not to cross the yellow line

give them a book and a bannana. the retarded monkey now becomes a smart banana
