This is the most Boomer thing I've ever seen
Why would an antique car need to be graded by modern standards anyhow? They are a tiny diminishing fraction of what is on the roads.
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 6:19-21 KJVAAE

Kinda. But Jay Leno is also just an enthusiast individually, has a huge collection. That's why he did Comedians in Cars.
So that you're forced to buy a new shitty one with tracking and a kill switch etc.
NOOO NOT MY HECKIN INEFFICIENCY MACHINES
THINK OF THE HECKIN METAL (I NEED TO FLIP LATER)
I can't wait for TBD
If hot rods are a personal interest of Jay Leno, then I don't see the problem. It's rare to see these guys pursue a genuine interest, so more power to him.
Sup jew boi
Your mom.
He's just an autist for classic cars. Most people here would chose the removal of woke from media of slots of other issues.
Z-zing?
Classic cars are literally a passion project for Jay. Kinda wholesome desu.
Enjoy the plywood townhomes and favelas
Good for him. He's fighting on the right side on this one
It’s only California like that, in TX majority of counties don’t even have emissions testing. 25+ old is exempt and diesels are too. Texas is great for automotive enthusiasts. Only downside is beaners with slammed silverado shit boxes straight pipes with no cats. Sound and smell like shit.
two incoherent responses bordering on seeming automated
muh vroom vroom! What about my thousands of cars!?
What a faggot
what do classic car smog checks in california have to do with unaffordable housing, retard?
because i hate walking down the street and some boomer faggot in his '68 Chevy roll by and then i'm breathing brain-rotting exhaust for the next three minutes. fuck these assholes.
Shoo retard
STOP ENJOYING THINGS AAAAAAAA
your boomer mobiles will NOT be exempt
happens everyday i bet
California regulations are out of control and any single regulation defeated is a victory.
Government's are always looking for reasons to give out tickers and increase their own revenue.
California is trying to ban ICE cars entirely.
I've seen vehicles that wouldn't be road legal in Africa driving around in South Texas.
downside is beaners with slammed silverado shit boxes straight pipes with no cats. Sound and smell like shit.
yeah, and that's a huge downside. you can't even leave your windows open because some asshole is going to drive by and make you have to pause your conversation, and then the exhaust stinks up your house. i live in a city with a bunch of street-racing fags and it's infuriating, and the gay cops do nothing about it even though it's super obvious which cars are not street legal (they're kitted out and extremely loud and smell horrible).
Just give them a carbon tax and offset any pollution.
So is the rest of the civilized world outside of 'Murrica.
Based, classic cars are so few their environmental damage is negligible. This crusade against them is idiotic and is killing car culture
lmao stay mad
Just hold your breath for a little bit and strengthen your lungs.
should rape be illegal because the rapists enjoy it? quit being a fucking retard. they can enjoy their gay boomer cars and faggot streetracer cars at the racetrack or car show or private property. but the thousands of people they pass by in them wherever they go should have to deal with that obnoxious shit.
should rape be illegal because the rapists enjoy it?
If you think driving is the same as rape, yes.
Did you get consent of the car before you got inside it?
I HAD TO HECKIN PAUSE MY CONVO
middle of 6 lane public road
200 people in eyesight
how about you just learn to drive you fucking illegal
other people are already advocating for the other things
people going more on the specifics on why the tariffs will screw them is more compelling than just saying "the line is going down!"
even if it seems like something frivolous
A large part of the problem is that shitboxes from the late 70's and 80's qualify as "classic", and are some of the worst cars ever built by civilization.
Only for the front, but I went in back door, by force
holding your breath causes brain damage. just buy a car with modern emissions controls.
That wasn't Jay Leno in Comedian Cars with Coffees. It was Adam Corolla.
Yeah if you deprive yourself of air for way too long, sure kek. Letting fumes dissipate takes what, a few seconds?
Have you ever swam underwater?
Also it wasn't real advice, though it is something you could implement if ever annoyed by such a thing in the future, so maybe it was!
your replay makes no sense, retard. im talking about when you're in your house and have to pause your conversation because some unmuffled scumbag's car drives by. and that happens to everyone in every single dwelling of the thousands that the scumbag drives past every single day. these fags are societal cancer.
imagine if Jay Leno instead did a press conference about how Trump was evil.
just buy a goy mobile that is full of computers and nearly impossible to work on yourself
I like seeing cool old cars on the road.
Modern cars are ugly.
Letting fumes dissipate takes what, a few seconds?
you can smell cars with the cat removed for literally over a minute. and if you're running or walking up hill, you're going to have to eat that exhaust. this has happened to me many, many times when i walk to the gym near my house.
I like how the complete fucking arrogance of that question is totally lost on this bitch
That isn't newsworthy, it's just alarming how many people are ok with evil-minded incompetence.
That's actually based. California is one of the only states that doesn't have a rolling classic car exemption. It's capped at something like 1976. So my 1987 neo-classic hasn't been smogged since registration and so I rarely drive it. Almost every other state has a rolling date that goes back 30 or so years.
These laws essentially exist to make people trash their old cars, even if they're nice and historically significant. Meanwhile, disgusting semi-truckers are exempt from everything and pollute the most on California roads.
Thanks Leno.
This has literally never happened to you
No it was woody harrelson.
*Private property and men
Ftfy
Why should I hate him for that? He's passionate about cars. I'm not going to hold that against him.
Can we remake classic cars and sell them? With as little plastic chinkshit as possible and make them noisy and smoky
The issue is that rusty, broken down, resold 8 times cars are "classic" and California doesn't want it's smog back, it wants them all taken out to the junkyard and scrapped.
itt dickless poorboys who wish they could afford nice cars, but they can't so they complain about them like little kike weasels
Car "people" are more niggery than the blackest African
Some companies already do this.
California doesn't want it's smog back
Excuse me retard. Consumer cars don't contribute to smog whatsoever. It's all commercial trucks (big rigs) and industry that does that. Forcing classic cars to get smogged is oppressive.
Here's my unsmoggable classic Cosworth Mercedes. I still drive it regardless of the gay laws, but making it easier for people like me and Jay Leno to enjoy our cars is a good thing that negatively impacts zero people except for NIMBY trophy wives who shouldn't vote anyway.
Why don't you just ban the rusty broken down cars and allow the nicely maintained vehicles for occasional use?
you can smell cars with the cat removed for literally over a minute. a
Wrong
I cannot fucking wait till every boomer is dead and gone. They care about such stupid fucking shit. The cars aren't "classic" they're trash. Put a new fucking engine in the damn thing if it's so important for you to drive the piece of shit.
Because he owns like 100 classic cars.
Why would a classic car collector want classic cars to be exempt from smog checks
NO
FUCKING
IDEA

California is densely populated as fuck. They have to be this way or their state turns into Chinese pollution levels. You would understand if you lived there a year, the number of people is off the fucking charts.
The whole state isn't L.A., beaner.
because I hate my parents
That’s great, I love mine though. You will never be a woman by the way.
cali is gay
gay sun
gay girls
gay government
gay men
gay food
gay pets
gay niggers
gay wetbacks
gay beaches
gay music
gay movies
gay architecture
gay mountains
gay roadway system
gay faggot population
At some point there are so few cars of those model years, it's not worth the effort to police them. It's reasonable to have some cutoff.
All those classic cars are headed to the junkyard in the next 10 years and you love to see it
Start with the little pleasures
Own nothing and be happy or be miserable, you actually get to decide
This. Bless Leno.
Nah, he's based. Celebrities shouldn't be paragons of virtue or champion any grand cause.
He's just a guy fighting for something personal to him.
The most boomer thing ever was the start of all this faggot enforced environmental kikery.
Boy, do I love breathing in burning petroleum.
Yum. Petroleum.
Based. Leno loves his cars, simple as.
There is a huge number of them here. 180k or so vintage vehicles on a population of 9M. And apart from the big cities I think California isn't more dense.
Maybe it's not required to ban them for occasional use?
Yeah I don't believe that. I also walk around and the smell itself may be there, but the actual exhaust has dissipated. Breathing in the exhaust is what you want to avoid.
Yup.
(Everyone has said for years that the former state of California’s gov new-some is a criminal and that the state is run by four crime families. The wise-guys back in the day at least understood how to keep a good thing going but who runs California is acting more like a king ruling over peasants with nothing left to tribute. Not a good situation for a glorified harvesting operation that has been posing as a legal state entity since 2001!)
We have to preserve all of history not just the good parts
I wish I had a 50s car (and gf)
Hi Jay.
daily reminder
judgement from the mediator will be harsh for your insulting kind
Old cars are based so i agree with Jay.
you will never have a torpedo tits gf
smog regulations in California are a good thing and not a way to sell more new cars
They didn't take away the classic car exemption and Leno is trying to bring it back
This is the most Millenial thread I've ever seen.
