That’s funny. Last time I checked, I liked the look of my corvette, its been on the road since 1999 without issue and gets 31mpg hwy 23mpg city.

Hmm, again, how a car looks and what someone thinks of that is subjective, and american cars have come a long ways with gas mileage.

The cars are no longer the problem. It is the way the company is run and that is why GM and the like are in such problems. Have import sales hurt domestic sales, yes, of course. Each person likes a specific car for a specific reason so you can’t really argue that.

Have you ever seen any foreign companies giving “employee discounts”? I havent. They dont have to People who buy american cars nowadays are shopping for a price, people who buy foriegn cars are shopping for a car. Im not talking about Corvettes, im talking about normal cars that most people in this country drive. Camrys, Accords etc. You know that high volume vehicles. Sure the product isnt the whole problem but a much better product would help.
