I do believe it was 2003 when the United State of California decided for fuel efficiency and "green" reasons, all cars had to switch to drive-by-wire system by 2006. That left GM to quickly build the Cobalt, which aside from the SS, was a total failure and only lasted 5 years. I hate drive-by-wire, but its here to stay thanks to the nannies of the world. It'll be in the 86, not a doubt in my mind since its now "law" as the President of California seems to believe.
