Is it acutally street legal..in Canada?
From what I gathered, the show's criteria for being a road car was that it can go over a speedbump, and they did have a license plate on it.

But in Canada, you can't get a new GTO because it doesn't make Transport's Canada 5KM bumper test (which is stricter than the US regulations).

That said, I have no idea how those Mercedes Smart Cars meet Transport Canada regulations either.
