I vote we all get Vespa's and hang out in poetry coffee houses.
While it may seem trivial, GM's claiming that the Camaro is an American Muscle Car....yet it's not made in the United States. I mean, if you consider American to mean the North American continent, then sure...even then that's kind of sly.

Yeah but the aim of American advertisting has ALWAYS been to pull the wool over our eyes and pretend that we live in a "utopian" society where all of our own sh!t is better because it's "American". Nothing new here.

The bottom line here is the almightly dollar (I use the term "allmightly" loosely in this case). As long as we (Americans) are a money driven society, this will always be the case. Unfortunately it has very little to do with pride anymore and everything to do with greed.

I don't really have anything against any car manufacturer. Honestly, cars to me have been getting uglier and uglier over the past decade. They make the headlights bigger and goofier by the minute. Soon enough, the front end of cars will just be a big headlight.

I'm a sexy car kind a guy. Give me a 1998 Vr-4 brand new... and I'll take that over a Z even, just cause it looks soooo dammmmmnnn gooood!

All cars to me nowadays are crap. I even like the old 300zx better than the new Z...

BMW went downhill when they hired an American guy to design the new series...

The Lexus RX300 which was a very sexy car in 2004 looks like a rich bitch wife car now.

The 1996 Chrysler Concorde LXI that had finesse and good lines turned into a big bumble bee piece of crap that looks like a bathtub on wheels.

The 90's Eclipse was nice.. then the next to models are ugly.

Man... it's depressing what happened to cars in the past decade or so. So, what I'm trying to say is screw all car manufacturers for making all these ugly cars that I don't want to buy!
