[/quote]It seems it's due to lower than originally estimates gas mileage, so higher tax.

I originally signed up for VDC tour on 10/15/05 so i can see if i am lucky enough to at least see Orion Diamond docking.
My car should be easily recognizable since i am probably the only one that made the dumb silver grey/silverstone combination ( i have been kicking myself in the rear on not going with silvergrey/black combo).
