Even I know the superiority of the foreign made cars. Who in their right mind would buy a 4 door car and think it is a sports car????

I don't think I've ever seen anything more pointless. BTW, the 2 ton sedan beat the sports GT around a track, and kept up in the quarter mile. If you want to make biased statments, try using something that doesn't make the car you are trying to promote look bad.

The Porsche is a far superior car. The Cadillac has a long way to go before it can begin to compete. If I only had enough $ for a German made car.
