May I remind you that Germany is not only part of, but also the biggest country in the EU? You know, the country with the unlimited (and toll-free) roads? And the manufacturers of obscenely overpowered cars?

It's all good over in Germany if you want to vote green, and perhaps shut down all those nuclear power plants and get into the recycling bandwagon and stuff. But nobody is going to query whether you *really* need a car engine with more power than that on a 52-seat passenger bus.

And no, you don't really *need* that engine, but fuck it, it's fun to have it. :o)
