When I first heard of the project I had serious doubts that the cars would even make it to the U.S. Now I've changed my mind, I think that they'll most likely make it here, though I'm not quite sure that they'll succeed. I think that they'll have a good chance - but it's still just a chance.
And about Bricklin himself, if you take a look at how he handled Subaru back in the 1960's and then how he took care of the Yugo in the 80's, you'll see that he learned quite a bit about selling cars between the two. Even so, although the Yugo dealer network was infinitely better that Subaru's was in the 1960's, it was still not on par with any other manufacturer's in the 1980s. I'm hoping that he learned enough from Yugo's dealer short comings to give people decent service this time around with ZMW. (Truthfully, I'm more worried about this than I am about the actual vehicles he's going to import)
