ROFLMAO...the funniest thing about this is I've got a couple of friends who drove across the border to Canada and were detained because one of them had brought his knife (which he carries everywhere) and it happened to be something like this : http://www.theknifeconnection.com/Im...g%20Knives.jpg with a spring-assisted blade. Apparently spring-assisted blades are illegal in Canada. So they told me this and when our RX8 came in a week later and had one of these "switchblade" keys, I started joking with them that I couldn't take the car to Canada for precisely that reason.
