1. Chinese don't have the money.
2. Chinese have to start paying European wages instead of Chinese wages.
Because a Hyundai can actually go head to head with Accord and Camry and win the "Best Family Sedan for Under $22,000" competition right now. Hyundai is selling on "value" alone.
There is a 14 year gap bewteen Korean cars and Chinese cars. The gap is close to 18 years with Japanese cars.
lol
Such a nouveau riche attitude won't lead your country to anywhere.
:lol:
A number of Chinese brands have setup their factories in North America, France, Germany, Italy and have created numerous local jobs and are paying western european wage. Most of them are home electronics manufactuers such as Haier, Hisense, etc.
I would not comment on the year gap thing, but what do you guys have in your inventory to beat the 2002 Lexus, say LS430?
Any car to beat the 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX on the dirt road?
Any car to beat even a Mazda RX8? even a obsolete Skyline? Evo?
Four years gap huh, you think the japanese were asleeping and let you guys walk all the way pass? gimme a break.
Yeah, the 2006 SONATA does in a way have some air of a 2002 Subaru Legacy's face and an Accord's ass, if that's what you are refering to, 4 years.
