I like him. He's silly. :confused1
Ok, here's a challenge for you - find me an American car that can meet the following specifications (go get yourself a pencil and a piece of paper):
1. Produced in the last 6 model years.
2. Available for sale in the U.S. market
3. Has front, side, and curtain air bags
4. Either powered by diesel engine or can travel 675 miles or more on ONE 15-gallon tank of fuel with a traditional (read: torque converter-based) automatic transmission
5. Does not sound like a thin-walled beer can when you (a)close the doors or (b)rap on the headliner
6. Seats four or more
7. Equipped with pw/pl/pm/sunroof, AM/FM/CD/Cass stereo with amplifier, heated leather seats, steering wheel radio controls, heated windshield washer nozzles, cruise control, intermittent wipers, FULL SIZED spare tire, tilt/telescope steering column, immobilizer-III ignition keys with keyless entry, and factory alarm system.
8. Interior fit and finish comparable to VW/BMW
9. Sells for $23,000U.S. or less as depicted above.
Got all that? Good. Run along now, and go find me this wonderful American car I didn't find any trace of 5 years ago when I bought my TDI. I would like to know what I missed.
Happy hunting,
Rob
