Fucking french. Next thing we all know, the Níssán will be throwing in a loaf of french bread with every shitty Renault knockoff car sale.

See this is where we are diametrically opposed. Nissan was a mess in the late 90's. Ghosn did a good job of saving the company. What they are doing now is so much better its amazing. They streamlined their chassis lineup. They streamlined their engine lineup. They cut out the excess that was costing the company a fortune.
People criticize the platform the 350 is based on. Its a extremely rigid and amazing platform. While people call the car heavy it handles much better than one would think a 3175 pound car would. Same goes for the GTR for a 3800 pound car its handling is almost physics defying.
Should I add their sales are up, not down? A lot of you guys don't like artist rendering. Thinking that's what a particular up coming car is going to look like. People its a rendering its not the defacto product.
I remember all the different renderings of the 350 before it came out. It wound up looking different than almost all of them. It wound up not being bad at all. The 370 is looking pretty hot IMO.
In the end Nissan is having success, not fail. If you think its fail, its because it does not fit your ideal of what you think they should be doing. With sales up though, I think a lot of people would disagree.
