Porsche vs. the enviro's - coming here?
Hope this hasn't been covered already, I did a search and didn't find it. Basically, the city of London wants to raise fees for "high emissions SUV's and sportscars" and this has led Porsche to take legal action against the city of London. Owners of Porsches and other high emissions vehicles would end up shelling out £25 ($50!) per day to enter the city, and even those already residing in the city would be forced to cough up this amount.

I personally don't hold much hope that I will always be entitled or able to drive my old beast on public roads due to future environmental legislation. Do you think this the future in North America too?
