[Shotimes] (OT) CTS-V in Detroit Free Press

[Ron Porter]

I believe that part of the reason is that the European car buyer is
different from the US car buyer. In many cases, there is only one car per
family, and they keep them a long time. I recall that they are not as
price-sensitive, but will pay for quality.

The typical US car buyer, OTOH.......

I'll just never understand why the US doesn't "deserve" to get the same cars
Europe has.  All the cars over here are made like crap, yet over there the
same cars are awesome, with better materials, stronger engines, and more
aggressive styling.  Maybe it's because they they can skimp on US cars and
get away with it, where, if they did in Europe, the buyers simply wouldn't
buy them.
