maybe we also need to keep something in mind here.. the author mentioned this is his daughters dream car.. i defiantly think the asian and european car companies are much better at styling their cars towards young people. just look at the kia soul.. is there anything simular in form or style from an american manufacturer? most young people i talk to want what the foreign companies are offering.. its not because they hate america or american car companies... people want what they want... the car companies need to see that... most of my friends want a small sporty coupe, manual transmission and a turbo... that is extremely hard to find in an american car... so should my friends or the daughter of the author by something they dont like?
