I wonder how this will change the prices on cars like the W126 and W140 that quality for the list. I wonder how many cars will become "extinct" because of this program.

I personally would not care if ALL of the new American car makers fell off the face of the earth. They don't sell anything that I would even remotely consider buying. Our cars are pathetic jokes. Every time they test an American car on Top Gear they have a really good laugh about the handling and then do the "cheap plastic dash" test by hitting the top of it and listening to it resonate like a drum.
