Yeah, I've heard that some states do, not sure how thorough they are.

All this is of course speculation on my part, as I only know what I'm shown. But the US seems to host a variety of quite sketchy cars.

Considering I spotted this the other day. Yeah. My state doesn't do inspection or emissions btw

 

That is split vertically from rust and a hard hit. Yep.

That's the shitty mayor for you. Taking away your right to do what you want with your vehicle so cops feel safer. Don't think it's the job of private citizens to make anyone feel safer. Side note not against cops just a very libertarian view that unless it infringes on other people's rights or harms them then they should leave me alone. Also I always roll down my windows for them if they stop me. Tint is only a problem in the inner city were thugs use it to commit crimes. Not so much in the suburbs.

 

Edit: I'm just going to get something from my eye doctor giving me permission to have titnt for a eye condition where bright light hurts your eyes/contrast of light and dark messed with you. One of the reasons why I loved my tint at night. Kept people's headlights out of my car and from glare from my mirrors.

Photophobia? 

I've got that. Doctors will mostly steer towards sunglasses/Prescription sunglasses.

Idk but you can also get car tint for it as well.

Really wish there was a photochromic tint available. Going to get that treatment on my next pair of glasses. 

Switching between sunglasses and glasses all the time is a bit of a pain.

I know you have a St this is a site I knew about that sells part for all the Eco boost engines if your interested. Not sure if you knew about them but give it a look.

[IKnight]

Watching this actually hurts. Keep in mind I'm younger than most of these people.

Their intercooler is $100 cheaper than the cp-e one I was looking at buying from CJponyparts... I might get that I'm not sure yet. Good shout!

[vetali]

lol... just lol. I'm a pretty big honda fanboy and I hope nobody buys this. People will buy it regardless if the ST kicks its teeth in. 

 

Type R reviews should be out in a month, but for the price it'll likely be it may end up competing with the RS. Just gotta hope the ride quality is better, otherwise it wont sell either.

My friend James had to remove his factory tint from his Cobalt SS due to a Michigan cop. Now that his car is registered in Indiana they can't ticket him for it. 

I would love to hear a cop tell me to remove tinted glass from my vehicle.

Legally they can if they want to.

If the glass itself was placed there from the factory then they can't. I'm also referring to factory "dyed" glass.

I gotta admit, I didn't see the Porsche move coming with the 1.5 liter to handicap it so it doesn't threaten the Type R...  I'd take a Fiesta ST over this any day

 

and I'm with you, I'm usually a bit of a Honda fanboi

 

for the record, I didn't watch the review, just looked up engine specs and weight

If it's on the front windows yes they can. If it doesn't comply with state laws.
