    This is blowing up on facebook now (with help from me) so figured I'd post over here too. Take the 15 seconds to sign this pettition to reduce the import ban down to 15 years. I want a E39 diesel touring :D

        I would like to add that we cannot put all of the blame on the NHTSA or EPA for this one.  Mercedes initiated the million dollar campaign to enact the ban on importation of cars not intended for our market.

                  They were upset that Americans were importing G-wagons and 500SEL's in the 80's instead of being content with the 380SEL we had.

                      Procrastination... the true mark of an automotive enthusiast.  Everyone thought they would do it later and went back to the garage and now they have all forgotten.

                          This isn't going to happen=/ I have been keeping track of the site and the votes are few and far between.

                              Even if it got all the votes.

                              Nothing would happen
