This Just In: New on the Net

Yesterday, I did a post about Isuzu leaving the US passenger car market. For the headline, I wrote, "Isuzu to US: Screw You Guys, We’re Going Home." Later in the day, someone who claimed to be the Public Relations Director for Isuzu North America commented that Isuzu never actually said, "we’re going home." I’d like to take this opportunity to say they didn’t say "screw you guys" either. That was Cartman. Here’s the news:
- Looking to buy a new GTR? According to this article, you should be prepared to pay up to 60 grand over sticker. As a reminder, list price is 69 grand. Like Pizza Hut says, double means more. Exhaust Note
- "The King" will wave the green starting flag for the 50th running of the Daytona 500. Nope, not Elvis. But close. NASCAR
- Yesterday, a supposedly leaked brochure for the upcoming VW Scirocco hit the web. The interior looked almost identical to the new Rabbit, and the seats were pretty bland. Turns out it was a fake. Motor Authority
- IIHS studies have shown that speed cameras reduce speeding in a big way. The good news for you speeders is that only 35 jurisdictions in the United States use them in enforcement efforts. Yahoo News

I think this sucks to, but because of the way that Nissan’s hands are basically tied they can ask dealers to sell it for 60K, but they don’t have any real power to enforce it.

What happened to Nissan saying that they weren’t aloud to “Price Gouge” That’s total BS. I know it will never happen but people shouldn’t buy these cars just to spite those Dealerships. It would be nice if Nissan STRICTLY enforced the fact that they weren’t going to allow Gouging on these vehicles and people could actually purchase the GT-Rs right from the Factory.
