I think Mustang sales were a little slower last month, being in transition to the new 2018 models that arrived in showrooms this month and potential buyers holding off.

[BENT_8]

If Mustang only sold 260 in May, which was attributed to the transition to 2018 models, why would it bounce back to 635 in June before the 2018 release?

... Because of the extremely good runout deals they offered on the 2017 models.

I know because I bought one.

Fair enough, hardly anyone wanted a soon to be superceeded Mustang in May because they were still at retail price but they did in June when they were heavily discounted.

Someone remind me please, do VFACTS include only private sales or across the board fleet/government/business?

Cars like the ZB, while they've quoted 250 locally built included by memory, be interesting to see the private sale split. I know i've read locally here in SA they're talking buying some as patrol cars, kinda inflates reality when you're trying to get a view of the publics actual reaction to these things.

The top 4 cars are Thai built junk. Toyota, Ford and Mitsubishi laughing all the way to the bank. Sad times

I dunno, the quality guy that looked after those pre-launch FGs in 2008
Was such a fastidious person, nothing escaped his eye.

I wonder where he ended up, probably fixes A/Cs now......

The person who did the quality control on our territory is probably patting his guide dog now.

Could you please repeat that?




Never mind, I've read similar, in your posts dozens of times

Haha i’ll repeat it again with no apologies. Thai build junk built by sweatshop workers for $2USD an hour doesn’t belong on our roads at the price the manufacturers are charging. Full stop. If the price tag matched Great Wall and Mahondra, then we’ll talk .

At least you left my little i30 oil-burner alone this time! Every time I wash it I tell it, "MM says you're a heap of poop and don't deserve to be on our roads."

Damn thing doesn't listen to a word I say - just insists on purring along and making me wait 800 Klicks between bowser visits.

I must get around to buying a decent car one of these days...

I30 is better car than Thai junk pretending to be Japanese or American. The last time I rented one, I was impressed by the fit and finish. It was put together a lot better than the Thai cars: Lancer, current Corolla Sedan or worse Nissan Micra, that thing was a turd. The i30 also happened to be made in the Czech Republic, which was a pleasant surprise.

So are you saying your “top shelf” I30 is great because it is made by Europeans / Caucasians ?

Only the N model is built in Europe the rest are from south Korea.

Funny the rolla is still from Japan as was the lancer.

What exactly is an "infetia"?

I could not find that word in the dictionary.

Its Latin. It means in honour of the dead. Which is what the 17 model is compared to the 18.

The latin word is "Inferia" not "Infetia".

[arronm]

You edited your comment and corrected your mistake after I made my comment.

Some people have no sunshine in their day, or don’t own a Mustang.
