    That tells me that if you make the legal costs of this cost-cut more than $21 per car, those guys would stop selling cars without immobilisers.

    Honestly, to me (a European, but I digress) this would be worth mandating a mass recall for. If yours hasn’t been nicked yet, now would be a great time to send it to the dealer and have its immobilisation system be refitted from US to EU spec. If I was running a company that did this, the manager who approved that stunt would be fired and probably they’re gonna have to talk to a lawyer.
