*SIGH*

*SNIP* I have to break it down for you.

You are calling me a car dealer - why?

Because I'm saying the same thing any dealer or manufacturer would say?

Brainwashed? How? Do you understand how capitalism work? There is no secrete agenda here or conspiracy. The car companies are not covering up data to hide 2+2 RWD Turbo-4 demand.

Take a marketing class or something, then maybe you could keep up with the conversation.


Lets put some stuff in perspective.

Now what cars, and what customers do you think Nissan cares about more? Did you even know the Evo will be dead in a few months?

Quote:
peaking at the Tokyo motor show today, Ryugo Nakao, product planning boss for the Japanese manufacturer, says the Evolution line as we know it will stop with the 10th generation.
"We can not do both environmental protection and sports car development at the same time," he says.
"Therefore we would like to focus on the development of electric vehicles.
"Evolution 10 is the last model with petrol engine."
Nakao says an all-new, electric Evo may go on sale when the time amd technology is right. But such a car is several years away, and not an important part of current product planning.

I'm sorry you think basic facts are condescending and insulting. Did I strike a nerve? Sounds like a small man syndrome.

There are three types of car buyers. Those that buy new cars. They seemingly always buy a new car every 3-4 years. It's what they like. Those that buy late model used cars. They see more value in buying a used BMW for $20k instead of a loaded new Fiesta for 20k. Then those that are broke *SNIP* that buy $3k used cars.

Most on this forum and places like NICO are the latter two. Either buying a used car to get more bang and/or modify the piss out of it, or they are just broke asses.

There is nothing wrong or condescending about that. But some kid crying on Zilvia about wanting a new S16 that demographically and statistically he could never afford, doesn't exactly peak Nissan's interest. Just like my example of me being pissed over the 991 GT3 being PDK only now. Porsche would simply ask "how many GT3's have you bought?

Porsche would say -
2011 - 6016
2012- 8528

...followed by a "*SNIP* off"
