No more American muscle in the EU & UK

As Europe continues to tighten emissions regulations, the handful of EU or U.K. citizens that appreciate the subtleties of the Chevrolet V8 and have been hoping to get into the latest performance offering from the brand are finding themselves in a pinch.

The 2019 Corvette with a manual transmission gets 16 mpg city and 25 mpg highway -- not great, but there are a lot of European makes that do a lot worse.

OK, I'll pre-order.  I want a 1963 XKE replica with an electric drivetrain.
