They wouldn't have to get rid of them. They just wouldn't sell them here. The rest of the world, with a few exceptions, isn't as crazy as we are. China is just starting to embrace capitalism while we are throwing it away. China has about 4 times the population as we do, and they are buying up oil reserves. It's a great up and coming market for any car manufacturer that isn't owned by the US Government.

Nissan will still exist in the US. They will be a lot like Toyota, with a bunch of hybrid point A to B cars, fuel efficient family sedans, and cars that look like toasters (hello Cube). Toyota emraced this philosphy a couple years ago when they got rid of the Supra, MR2, and Celica.
