> If the dollar continues to slide against the euro, European car makers may have to raise prices on vehicles they build in Europe and sell in the U.S., shift production to countries with lower costs, or live with lower profit margins.

Cliff notes:  
Strong euro, weak dollar = difficult for euro companies to make money importing cars to the usa  
Possible solution: build more cars here
