[7998]

[FIcamaroRE92]

Can the state of CA do that? leagle?

[DaSkinnyGuy]

[DevilDougWS6]

[Dilley]

that is complete bs and the citizens of California should def petition or something

[Frosty]

It doesn't surprise me at all...Tool said it best in Aenima

The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.

[Tsar]

Just as ridiculous as their proposed big screen tv ban.... and by big screen they mean anything larger than 40 inches.

I'm an outlaw :lol:

[5.7TA]

Guess I won't be visiting CA anytime soon. :lol:

This really is going too far IMO, it's just plain ridiculous.

[BigAls87Z28]

Uh...well that would eliminate EVERY single limo in LA.
Ill call shens. I think someone let out an April Fools day article early.
Black is like the #2 color of vehicles.


OHHH ITS A TTAC ARTICLE.

the ban would apply only to new cars. It's not retroactive.

[LTb1ow]

Good god.

Does the state of California realize that for every ton of emissions they "prevent", the country of China quadruples that amount in its output of emissions? (Quadruples is prob an understatement)

[B4C]

GGGGAAAAAAYYYYYYY! Stinking left coast hippies:moon:

[BonzoHansen]

OHHH ITS A TTAC ARTICLE.

yeah, they can suck my ass BIG TIME.Expand on that please.

[Saitin]

so they would save .8 million (aka 800grand) a yeah but yet cost the tax payers millions in upped prices.
I call BS on this the government can't place a ban like this car are considered an innerstate import/export or w/e it is and they would have to be banned nationwide for it to be effective.

what do you mean cost the tax payers millions?

california has its own emissions standards. for companies to sell emissions products in cali, they have to be carb certified.

[CamaroJoe1987]

all i kno is, we are jersey, they are cali, completely opposite coasts, dont affect me none, atleast for a while that is

The state government absolutely can place a ban or restrictions on that. Federal law wouldn't apply to that since it would fall under state emissions code...and each state can govern those laws as they see fit provided they are still with in Federal EPA guidelines.

[Teds89IROC]

this is just absurd

[LTb1ow]

So !AC and black cars are a go?

[NastyEllEssWon]

i used to live in california. there are ways around every law they put in place. its made that way.

[NJ Torque]

stooopid.

[BigAls87Z28]

TTAC likes to drudge up bs and just blow things way out of perspective.

Dont read TTAC. It would be like trying to find a level headed view of President Obama on Limbaughisgod.com

[NastyEllEssWon]

if this tries to get passed through legislation someone is gonna bring up the point that people make a statement about themselves through their cars. banning a certain color would impede on their right to make said statement treading very finely on their consititutional right for freedom of speech or expression.
