Yeah, Porsche deliberately overprices in the US, and there are big dealer markups.

If you order a Mercedes Benz, BMW, or Porsche from Germany, and have it shipped to the US, you can often come out thousands ahead, for a better model.

Is that because Europe wants to avoid the market from buying imported products economy wise?

The new Civic's rear end is really ugly you can see at lot of the underside including the suspension. BUT that all changed with the Type R it makes the car look ALOT better.

Well, i do know what one of the 03's beatiful cars is, the Chrysler Crossfire. That thing is sweet looking. But damn, why a chrysler. lol... Is Chrysler partially owned by a German industry or something? Cause i remember the motto being like. "American design, German engineering" or something along those lines.

DaimlerChrysler. That's the company that exists now after DaimlerBenz merged with Chrysler in around 1996-1998. The Crossfire actually borrows heavily from the Mercedes Benz SLK230 and 320 sports roadsters, namely suspension, engine, transmission, a few interior bits, and the remaining driveline.

uh huh, it's a nice chrysler no doubting that. I would have more faith in it now since some amount of German influence is involved
