In Queensland, rego slaps you hard too, not to mention insurance.

The days of "V8s are the only way to go" are long long gone. The only people who are sad about losing a V8 are usually those who get off solely on an exhaust note alone, and who don't know the benefits of a smaller lighter car with a well sorted chassis and adequate (or, with todays hot hatch fours, usually more than adequate) power delivery.
