So production flexibility has grown to the point where BMW, Audi, and others can provide dozens of models, most of which are only a few % different from the next (in size, performance, price...)
I see an Audi coming,
it's commin round the bend,
but I haven't seen this since I don't know when
But I'm stuck in this American prison,
and time keeps dragging on
But that Audi keeps rollin, down on to the Frankfurt Aut-o Show.
@FlakJack: I might have hannover from all the cold medicine I took, but I'm pretty sure you can't göttingen any. But I bet those ladies are bremen with lots of Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetzabstimmung in their Bezirksschornsteinfeger, if you know what I mean.
Come back tomorrow for the unveiling of my electric sportscar (everyone else is announcing one) and bakelite Aston (inspired by the carbon-fibre one that I can't afford).
@Pessimipposaurus: Because that would be WWIII. The French and the British owned by the Germans on the land of Germans... Too bad that some vintage Polski Fiats didn't make it to the show.
Is there anything left to show? I got online this afternoon and it seemed like every major debut all dropped in a cluster bomb of automotive tom-foolery.
Oh, you don't REALLY wish we were all there, now do you? There might be an international incident.
But I would have to say they really started off with some impressive stuff!

@It's a Camaro: I'm just looking at the hatch part. Besides, I like to hoon as much as the next guy, but most of my driving is of a more dull commuting variety, set the cruise at 120km/h sort of thing (if I had cruise control). Modern diesels tend to be perfect for that sort of thing.

F@#k you Audi.
And I still WANT! What is wrong with me? Blood sugar low... must eat lunch!

Low points for me: the EV bandwagoneering and learning that the Audi R8 Spyder comes with a hidden Sally Struthers.

I guess they don't want anyone to know that they're relatives? I think?

@Dhillaz 2.0: Wait. I was wrong. It's called the REVOLTe. And why wait? Here it is.
Attractive, in a gory road accident sort of way.

"set the cruise at 120km/h"
My diesel works better if I set the criuse to 210 km/h.

150 km/h in the left lane here, and you will be put into a straightjacket.
