they said about the same thing in the 90's after the 80's car where junk. they came a long way from the junk they put out in the 80's. they sell a lot of cars so the women saying no one wants to buy there cars is bullshit.
but where they went wrong is, they didn't notice that most of the younger people want quick 4 banger cars. even if they had jumped on it in 2001. F&F came out in 2001 and every one want to be a ricer. i don't really believe the younger people would want to buy anything that's not a import. look at how the SRT4 is hated, it's quick and a 4 banger turbo. so did they really make a mistake by making big trucks and SUV's?
is the guy that buys a 90's honda going to go buy a quick 4 banger domestic car?
i feel the US auto makers problems lies with todays youth. just like people buy most things made in china to save a buck. no one cares about our country anymore. why spend money on US goods when you can save a buck and send the money oversea.
when the US automakers fail. what will the US still be making?
there is no IF they will close shop but then. as the biggest % of domestic car buyers die of old age and is replace by import lover and there kids. US auto makers will not have the sales to stay running. since where around 10+ years into the JDM world. they don't have much more time.
i can't believe how many of todays youth would like to see them go under. i guess they don't understand what it would mean for our country.
LONG LIVE JDM
