You have to rename the vid to a .wmv file.
It just shows the cluster where the guy redlines in fifth gear at 240kph+

nice vid, though I don't think running the car at or near redline for long periods of time is very good for the engine...

Those are fog tail lights. Extra bright brake/tail lights - I think there's a toggle switch for them in the cabin.

Hi!

Thank you all for your feedback! Yes - its an european edition, and they come in Red, Grey and White colors. All models have the red brakelight on the bumper. The car is original painted, and - according to previous owner - was never crashed or in any way modified.

Let me explain why not any person in their right state of mind would move to Norway.

The ITR I imported from Germany was sold to me for 13500USD. In order for me to bring the car into Norway, I have to pay the following:

4.30USD for each kilo (1000g) up to 1125kilo = 4825 USD
1.00USD for the first 1200CCM + 7USD for the next 600 (1.8l) = 3475 USD
17USD for the first 65kW, 1493USD for the next 25kW, 6400USD for the remaining 50kW (140kW atg) = 7910 USD
Tax for the original price (24% of 13500USD) = 3240 USD

Total Tax Price = 19450 USD

Tax rabate for car over 4 years is 45% (19450USD - 40%) = 10698USD

So, thats 13500USD for the car, and 10698USD in import tax to local tax office.

Now - is that being ripped off or what?
