Exclamation Put Your Checkbooks Away... Pagani Delayed

U.S. Blocks $1 million Italian Supercar - Yahoo! Autos

That's right, you're going to have to wait a bit longer. Stuid laws and NHTSA. Sorry, Krinkles.

I say they put a line on the side of the car that says "if you ain't this tall you can't go on this ride".

You mean this one?


It's called the American Express Centurion card.

I used to see these all the time when I worked at the Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara. Yes, you can charter a jet, yes, you have your own 800 number and a concierge who can get shops shut down for you...

...and yes, you have to be able to afford to charge a cool quarter million dollars a year on the card in order to have one.

They should just let them in. The Huayra probably wouldn't even be driven on the road by their owners anyways.

At least I learned how to pronounce Huayra. I always thought it was pronounced like this

Oh America...grow a pair of *****. One of the pussiest countries when it comes to cars and it's citizens never get any of the fun toys the rest of the world gets.

What I fail to understand is you can have a school bus with no seat belts or airbags legally transport these little pukes, but we can't allow a super car to not have airbags??

Agreed! There are a lot of things that the US does that doesn't make sense.

That's usually due to someone not getting their palms greased. Seems like public figures don't actually do the intended purpose of their position and mearly do what benefits them.
