I saw your industry story on GAZ and was wondering what they are making these days. Last I saw, they were making the old Volga sedan and wagon, kind of like an ugly Volvo 144. I heard something about building the now discontinued Ford Scorpio, but maybe someone has more current info. Is there much of a market for Russian built big cars? I should think that those who could affor it would be buying import makes.

Eastern European auto industry is DEAD :(
Completely DEAD.
For example, in Russia, they still produce cars such as Volga and Jiguli(dont know if i spelled it right, its something like that). These cars haven't not been updated since like the '60s. Nothing has been improved in them at all, and they all suck.
