an observation about european cars vs the rest of the world....

[Beatty, Robert]

Something I have noticed recently while driving....

I cant think of a European car imported to the US that has an off the wall
name.  It seems all the cars coming from Audi, BMW, Volvo, ect ect have
model names like A4 or 325i or 740L.  

In comparision, Ford, GM, Dodge, Honda, Toyota all have off the wall names.
Some are after animals, Impala and Mustang to name a few.  Others are
abstracts like the Focus or Neon.  Others are named after races, LeMans is
one Gran Prix is another.  I wonder why European manufacturers treat the
consumer like we actually know something, and the American ones treat
everyone like idiots?  I mean come on... WIDE TRACK?  Spare me the rhertoric
and just point out things about your car that I might like, dont come off
like most of us know nothing about anything.

Hhehehe sorry about the rambling, but I just wanted to mention what I had
been thinking about :)
