P.S. I disagree about U.S. buyers not being interested in high end quality.  An inaccurate generalization, at the very least....

 

True in general. But sometimes people in the US also like "flashy" vs "quality" (crying example: the Hummer, horrible on so many levels yet fun to watch and own). But this has also to do with the US mentality that there is no need to hide under a rock if you made some cash or that you enjoy cars regardless of how much gas they use SmileySmiley

 

PS: US states have a sales tax not only on new cars but also on USED cars in many states...

Also the USD is currently undervalued by about 20% due to the shift of central banks reserves to euro in the past few years and due to the future US deficit. It will correct itself eventually (maybe when the "big spenders" will be out of office in three years Smiley).
