摘要

This notice grants the Ferrari S.p.A. and Ferrari North America (collectively, "Ferrari") application for a temporary exemption from the requirements of S14.2 of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard ("FMVSS") No. 208, Occupant Crash Protection. The exemption applies to the Ferrari F430 vehicle line. In accordance with 49 CFR Part 555, the basis for the grant is that compliance would cause substantial economic hardship to a low-volume manufacturer that has tried in good faith to comply with the standard, and the exemption would have a negligible impact on motor vehicle safety. The exemption is effective September 1, 2006 and will remain in effect until August 31, 2008. In accordance with the requirements of 49 U.S.C. 30113(b)(2), we published a notice of receipt of the application \1\ and asked for public comments.\2\ We received no comments on the application. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
