One has to realize that the material for our cars were created sometime
before digital design was available to any but Dassault. Even GE was unable
to offer digital images of parts on appliances until this year. And its
sporadic at that.
I think we are fortunate that we have been able to get hold of these pirated
copies. Based on the cases being argued before our the US courts, it is
conceivable that car part imports will be restricted if the factories get
their way. The Washington Post headlined a couple of weeks ago how Ferrari
was supporting our DOT and EPA in holding up approval for grey market
imports. Next will be a policing of VINs to prevent these cars getting
parts.
Now when Clinton had his Mustang, we might have ducked this, who knows now
when a Texas Sub Division is considered the epitome of 4 wheel transport.
It does have 4 driven wheels though just like an Audi...(requisite Audi
stuff).
