Sweet

Just got back from NYIAS and I cannot wait to order the IQ. The production model minus 5 Axis body kit will look totally different but most importantly, being 6'6, 300+ lbs I fit. I would fit a person into the backseat but as a 2 seater it would work wonderfully. A lot of the dials didn't work and I don't think the Nav (the way it is set up) will make it in production but I am so excited.

GM is where they are today cause they were paying my cousin; and every other UAW worker, well over 70K a year to install radios! Thats right, 70,000$ to plug in a radio on the pick up line in Linden NJ. For the last 3 years that Linden was on again off again she was still collecting her paycheck and still holding onto her bennies. That went on for 3 years until they finally bought her out 4 years ago to the tune of 120K.

Thats the majority of the reason why GM and the others cant bail themselves out ... cause of good ol American greed.

I have to say look at what GM badge cloned? it did not expand the market coverage thay had IE a tahoe = a yukon = escalade = danalie or pontiac solstice = saturn sky
where the scion brought NEW car classes to the US

HP shouldn't be a problem if these folks take a liking to the iQ:

(Not a Hayabusa but a GXSR 1000 motor, I think)
