I believe a CEO of Rolls Royce said that they were in the business or
making the worlds finest autos. They were supposed to be in the
business of making a profit, but they couldn't manage that. The highly
successful aircraft engines were supporting the cars. VW has these
1000 hp cars that sell for over a mil, and cost nearly ten to build.
VW's are chick cars. They need a 1000 hp car to get the interest of men.
Rabbit? Passat? Cabriolet?
Tuareg -- What idiot did the market research on that name.
