Something called emissions and safety regs. Make them tougher every so often so the common Americans can plow into each other with a cell phone in one hand, Big Mac in the other, and walk away unhurt.
I'm glad there are some new cars with 6-speed manuals to keep the highway RPM's down. And a slew of manuals coming here the next year or two.
