I did smog tests on ALL kinds of cars, from Pintos to Ferrari's, they
all had to have a smog test when they were sold or registered as used in
Nevada.

I didn't say they were lousy now, I said they were lousy 25 years ago.
The engine build quality was so bad that some of the engines had to be
rebuilt almost as soon as they were delivered. Others ran ok, but sucked
oil like a wannabe Diesel.

The Ferrari's, Lams, Benzes, Beeemers, and most others would flunk
because they failed the tailpipe test, even horrible Fiats. It was a
rare Rolls that made it that far! One of the first things you checked
was blowby at the oil filler. If it was puffing out of it like a steam
loco, it flunked, if it smoked out the exhaust when revved to 2000 RPM,
it flunked.

They had nice interiors though..LOL.

I have read that many years ago too,BDK,,, in auto magazines,,, about
some new Rolls Royce engines had to be rebuilt as soon as them Rolls
Royce cars got to U.S.A.The truth is,,, them Stupid brits just can not
build decent quality cars.Look,(QQ) they are World famous for leaking
oil and coolant all over the place and the wireing harenesses are no
good and the mice over over there just love to eat up the upholstery.
