Replying to: steve_ (Apr 03, 2009 11:07 am) I dont know why they are still in US. Dismal sales,cheapo stigma ,poor dealer network and service and horrible resale- they just are doomed here.   I had a thought. Why did they not buy Saturn? They could have the 350 dealer network,no haggle price and could make all models as Saturn and thus maintain a US presence. Saturn is fairly well known. It could have been succcesful.Still wonder why they did not do it? Replies to this message: steve_ (Nov 07, 2009 9:35 am)

Replying to: deltheking (Nov 07, 2009 4:52 am) One of the conspiracy theories behind the failed Penske/Saturn deal is that GM didn't want to hand over a functional dealer network to a car company that would take sales away from them. Easier to wipe out the dealers.   Suzuki does well in other countries. I don't know what they need to do here to make it work, but they aren't spending enough money or working hard enough to make it happen.   There's a lot of people who really like the cars who won't buy because they don't trust that their dealer will be around to provide parts and warranty service in a year or two.

Mitsubishi land right now, this Suzuki kei-class WagonR just looks good to me for the moment. I do this all the time. But it's like looking at a perty girl at an NBA game for just a few minutes. And then suddenly the cameraman spazzes out and can't find her anymore.   It's not gonna last. I'm all Mitsu for the foreseeable future, baby.
