well i found out from toyota themselves that the MR-S couldnt pass the slow speed crash test that canada has i mean we are more strict than US when it comes to this and our highways arent that much.. infact vancouver has no gaddamn highway... just a couple of fvcked up bridges.... that's why the slow speed test is very very important here cos we are in km/h not mph hehehehe

importing that car to canada is hard as well... u have to go through a lot of inspections etc etc.... toyota didnt want to redesign the front bumper to make it pass the slow speed front crash test for canada since the market here is much smaller than the US...

all these stupid tests... that's why we dont get the fun cars!!!!
