There is a need of a wider choice market in my opinion.



i wouldn't call the côte d' azur area symptomatical for the world car market, but in a way you are right -- it's all about being the first, being different in this price segment.

but alle these new cars are cannibalizing themselves. IMO the "above EUR 150K" sports market can't be expanded -- people who bought a 911 turbo or merc SL now buy a gallardo or a DB9. they don't buy additional cars.

or let's look at aston martin -- what's so great about astons? that they are expensive and rare. and now the bring out the DB9 at nearly half the price of the vanquish and with nearly the same HP. and the carrera-priced DB8 isn't far away... AM's market strategy is a complete mistery to me. IMO someone wouldn't buy a DB8 instead of a porsche 911, but he would buy a DB8 instead of a DB9.

i bet that some car companies will have to modify their business plans.
