All were bone stock, and no Ferarri dealers in Vancouver to do the inspections so they ended up going to Canadian Tire.
The owners contacted him to tow the cars in an enclosed trailer to CT.
He said he towed a bunch of bone stock M4's for also noise violations.
The worst example was a first gen IS300 on steelies and snow tires.
Car was fully loaded with passengers and a roof mounted rack. Car was given a box 2 for being lowered and then the box 2 became a box 1 because the cop opened the hood and saw that the car had headers.
It would be nice if someone could get all the data from the VPD on how many box 1 and box 2 tickets they have handed out since August.

Geez... VI's for noise violations? That's such overkill. How does a car being "noisy" make it an unsafe not-roadworthy vehicle that would mandate a VI.
There's already a ticket worth $109 and 3 points for noise violations. No need for a VI for a noise violation.
Then again, all logic is out the window with Cain & Co.
