DANTE MUST DIE MODE

Justify the following

>Cimarron
>305CID engine in the mulletmobile making 130 HP
>The same car coming with an engine that made 85 fucking HP
>59/41% W/D on the Mustang 5.0
>GM's existence during this period
>the DeLorean outside of BTTF
>the Chrysler TC """"""""""by Maserati""""""""""

Without the mentioning of emissions, the fact that Honda and Toyota were already on their way to rekt the American car industry as a whole, or mentioning IMSA (which the USA was also routinely rekt in).

If USA had the same emissions regulations and tax upon CO2 and engine size USA wouldn't have any domestic cars left.

US emissions and safety regulations are more strict than most other countries. We just don't tax displacement because that's a stupid way to "reduce emissions".

And our gas is cheaper so there's less demand for ridiculously shitty to drive econoboxes.

It's almost like there was a giant increase in emissions regulations and a fuel crisis, necessitating neutering of cars and budget cuts while new technology was developed!

From less than half the engine.
It also has a CVT and, if you have eyes, is clearly designed for fucking retards so it doesn't matter how much power it has because the buyer is too mongoloid to operate a fucking key.
