It's figured on the MSRP at the time of purchase (new cars), and you will pay against that for 7 years (reducing scale of course). Complain all you want but ask your friends in Cali what they pay.

Some day a genius will come along and figure how to fund government with out taxes but alas we only have crooks and common men running it now.

Welcome sanity. Beware the S. Silver 8 curse.

I just paid a little less than 200.00 for my CA registration.

I got stranded out at GVR tonight due to a dead battery. Liza came out to jump it and it wouldn't start, I thought it had flooded.

Liza called the tow truck and I called Gilbert, he tried to guide me to my nipples to do the deflood but I have a CA 8 and the nipples were connected to tubes and I couldn't see them. Long story short Liza brought a new battery and Gilbert brought all the goods for the deflood. Even after the new battery and deflooding it with washer fluid it still wouldn't turn over completely. Started losing hope.

Gilbert wouldn't give up he is ferocious. Ran through the dechoking procedure many times and it finally turned over. If it wasn't for Gil my 8 would be sitting at the stealership right now. Thanks Gil!

Be afraid...be very afraid.

I will never, ever, eva,eva,evar...I mean EVAR change me brakes myself again, MAJOR PITA

On a positive note, ceramic brakes all around= Very Nice. Plus a free lifetime warranty so I'll never have to buy brake pads again! Just like my air filter, I like free. Gotta give a shout out to Gilbert for recommending these brakes.

How long is our Transmission warranty good for????

^lol yea so did I. I had to hit up autozone to get a big *** C clamp and use a old pad to push the caliper piston back in. With the C clamp I got the fronts done in 30min. **** I even had time to paint the calipers and hub of the old rusty rotors.
