I don't know what to say. I really don't. Just another reason my dark green, heat soaking, single digit gas mileage truck and I are staying out of Commiefornia.

I bought a silver car without a moonroof when I lived in AZ, your a fool to get a dark colored car there, however legislation to prevent dark colored cars is over the top.

Are they grandfathering in old black cars?

I think this will only be for new cars, too many dark colored cars on the road.

Face, meet Palm.

After the ban, I think I'll have a strange urge to fly to NV rent a new black gas guzzling suv/truck and drive into CA.

So, if you buy EBC (Evil Black Car) now why the prices are somewhat lower, then after the ban could you jack the price up to a rediculous amount and try to get rich?

Who is REALLY surprized by this action from the CARB? Not I says a former resident of the sad state of California

I can't claim to honestly be surprised by most any of this 'anti global warming' stuff anymore. I mean, they banned the light bulb in order to save us. Sure, there are other lighting options, etc...but just the fact that they banned the freaking light bulb makes it hard for me to be shocked at the extreme's the dirt people will go to now...

[Guest bluecanary25]

So.... What color vehicle is Calipornia gonna use for their guvmint offal?

[Guest Astra900]

Yeah, like all the custom shops on the west coast are gonna stop black paint jobs too? So you can't buy a black Ferrari in hollywood anymore:shrug: Do they really think a person with $$$ can't go to West Coast customs and have it painted. What a bunch of idiots.

I can see the CNN Newscast now...from the NEWS5 chopper above the scene.

The 405 is bumper to bumper behind a CHP rolling road block as a dark...probably BLACK SUV drives at 35MPH in the center lane...two occupant in the vehicle...one is the paint and body guy from WESTCOAST Custome's....the driver is...OJ...and he has a GLOCK with a 14 round magazine...hey! aren't those illegal in CA? He's yellin that he ain't gonna get his SUV repainted...but he did kill his wife...and the Goldman family can kiss his non white butt.

Uh-oh...there's some chatter over the police band...they're gonna take him out.
