Gas prices, $US/gal, regular (3/22/10):
US...3.05
Belgium...7.18
France...6.98
Germany...7.12
Italy...7.06
Netherlands...7.68
UK...6.65
Also consider that these countries are taxed all to hell and back so they have less disposable income than workers in the USA. True fans indeed.

Consider this, I live in Scandinavia, Finland to be exact. There are a few imported SS Camaro's available for delivery. After they have had all the EU
regulations installed and all the import taxes have been levied on this big engined car, the cost to put this sweet car in your driveway is 85,000 euro's or well over $110,000 USD. So the cost of a new SS Camaro when I told friends at work was under $40,000 fully loaded they just looked at me in amazement.
