[QUOTE="klein, post: 827382, member: 23950"] It's the opposite way around ! European vehicles have more safety devices. They had 2 extra rear brake lights before they were even introduced here, and we only gotten a 3rd breaklight. You ever noticed that Euro cars have yellow flashes as signal lights ? - So they never get mixed up with brake lights or rear lights. The Californian Emission Standard - they fly by with ease ! Every trunk has a warning triangle installed, too. Incase you ever stall on the road, and usually a first aid kit, too. Of course they have airbags, etc, too. In Europe you pay registration fee (there they call it, vehicle-tax), based on the size of engine. So, the manufacturers there, made these little 4 cyl engines very powerful ! :) They have always had much more torque then North American built cars. I don't even think gasloine with a low level of 87 octane is available there. I drove an Audi, and it said minimum octane 91 required. [/QUOTE]
