    This car rocks. I will definitely go drive one.

    The domestic apologists can bite me with their Soviet era mentality.

    That would be my favorite ad campaign if it weren't for the color, which I can only describe as "Sideways Hat and Ill-Fitting Jeans Yellow".

    Nice. I prefer YoYo Ma to Smashing Pumpkins myself.

    That's one ugly sports car, but I can't really argue with cheap speed.

    That made me want to go find my good headphones and listen to some Yo-Yo Ma, not buy a Hyundai.

    There is something about hoonage and classical music that just seems to fit. Its the automotive equivalent of putting helicopter attacks to Ride of the Valkyrie in Apocalypse Now.

    @Van Sarockin: I can't imagine with that much oversteer he's going to return anything close to a respectable lap time.


    So is that what they were getting at? It looks good by itself and on paper, but doesn't get the job done, when directly compared to its competitors?


    Interesting marketing strategy if you're marketing to the racing type.

    Thats fun. You have got to love compitition... though as one who buys local and doesn't like outsouring, I would have to stick with US made stuff...

    @zeeboid:


    You have greater odds of buying something american made by buying a foreign brand name. That's just the way it works these days.


    Get used to it, it's an international economy, you can't differentiate between domestic and foreign, if you did try to do that, you would be the biggest vegan, locally grown, cruncy chewy, earth firster on the planet.

    @jduffy13: It goes way beyond where it's made.


    For every car put together by ~50 line workers, there are hundreds of high-paying, wealth-building white-collar jobs.


    It remains true that domestic is still domestic and foreign is still foreign in that respect.

    @zeeboid: ahh the irony. US brands are mostly made in Mexico and Asia and those durn foreigners have the gall and audacity to have decent hardworking 'mericans forced to labor here in the US on their fureign crap.

    @the artist formerly known as dolo54: I don't even really care about this "Made in America" argument, but I am getting a bit tired of the exaggerated BS being slung about. Most US brands are NOT made in Mexico and Asia. And while Toyota, Honda, etc do have US factories, they still import a ton of cars built elsewhere. And of course you have to factor in all of the designers, engineers, marketers, etc that don't work at the assembly plants and where they are located. I'm sorry, but any Toyota you buy simply does not support as many DIRECT American jobs as any Detroit 3 auto. I'm not telling anybody what to buy or not, just stop bullshitting everybody about how Toyota is more 'Merican than so-and-so's Chevy.

    Basically, a company's job is to aggregate wealth for the headquarters and the owners (shareholders).
