Default Cali Banning Black Cars?!

http://www.autoblog.com/2009/03/25/c...ng-black-cars/


".....Apparently, the California Air Resources Board figures that the climate control systems of dark colored cars need to work harder than their lighter siblings – especially after sitting in the sun for a few hours. Anyone living in a hot, sunny climate will tell you that this assumption is accurate, of course. In fact, legislation already exists for buildings that has proven successful at reducing the energy consumption of skyscrapers........"


Kinda over the top limiting people on what fukin color car they can have.....

FUCKING STUPID.

How much more work does the climate control really have to do over other colors?

why don't they just ban a/c.

It would saving the environment and be implementing a weight loss plan

So is this going for new production cars and cars already on the road are granfathered in? Or are people going to forced to paint their car?
