After all, the USA is the biggest market in the world....how do you justify staying out of it????
    China's the biggest market now...

    China is the fates growing market in sales vs the prior year. The USA still has the most vehicles per person and the most vehicles on the road. However as it is a mature market in that population is stable and most buyers are replacing vehicles vs China new people who never owned a car are buying make China fastest growing. Also the Chinese are keeping most non Chinese vehicles out and selling Chinese junk which makes you wonder how much of the market is available to outside China companies and can they produce a cheap enough vehicle

    All I know is that when I was over there, the only things I saw besides the Chinese cars were Japanese imports(mostly Mitsubishis) and I had been told they got raped on import fees. Also a couple Italian cars in Hong Kong.
    The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.
