Ferrari generally only makes about about that many cars for the world in total a year... so yea they qualify for the exemption... Porsche on the other hand is completely screwed and from the rumors I've heard is contemplating pulling out the US market COMPLETELY...
HERE IS THE SOLUTION! Remove the bowtie, make "Z28" a specific branch of GM and make a limited edition! ... Ok, price will follow though ...

We the heck had the original idea of this stupid regulation?

Other solution: make a bunch of electric cars, no oil consumed, then you can make hipo cars.

damn, greens are killing the car industry ... how many people are gonna loose their jobs because of that?
