I don’t think we care in Australia. The design rules are pretty much behind the pack, so much so that we run the risk of being the dumping ground for 3rd world vehicles.
Its a $10,000 fine if you get caught de-catting a car.
Also we have the whole defect notice system, which I'm pretty sure the US doesnt have. We actually hold the end user accountable.
Just a shame we don’t have great emission standards to begin with. Apparently we use the cheap and dirty fuel of the world. Gotta sell it somewhere!
Shame its connected to thousands of deaths each year
You guys were the last country in the world to ban leaded gas... in 2002 lol.
I can already picture the episode of Highway Patrol now where Johno gets caught for the fifth time in the same car and cops a couple hundred bucks fine and the loss of a demerit point.
