will-82 Member 427 Member For: 20y 27d Location: sydney Posted 14/06/14 05:34 AM Share Posted 14/06/14 05:34 AM (edited) It pretty simple both Expensive Daewoo and ford never had a chance, because they built cars they wanted to build and not the cars people wanted to buy.Everyone is buying smaller cheaper cars, so the Late model camira and falcon kept getting bigger and more expensive Edited 14/06/14 05:40 AM by will-82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expensive Daewoo get double the funding for more sales (no sh*t... better products due to having more money to spend on R&D) but choose to accept and spend all of that tax-payer funded advice, just to give us the VE and VF commodore's...Ford and Toyota got some money too, but you don't see them offering a significantly advanced technological product offering.

I really wonder how they would have gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what happened2014 sales. YTD Falcon=2304. Commodore=10551. That says it all.
