Default Re: Repro Corvette Tri-Power Units

Until they (the automakers) start producing cars to demand instead of to capacity they are going to bleed red ink.
Just because you have capacity doesn't mean you have to use it. All you do is flood the market and drive the price down. The one who wins the price war is the one who is the lowest cost producer... which is not the US makers with their legacy costs.
Overproduction and Price wars have killed Ford and GM.
They need to close their highest cost facilities concentrate on platforms that yield the most different vehicles with the fewest number of production changes and run with it... Unless they change quickly the Chinese are going to destroy them.
