Q:
My Morningstar.com newsletter this morning says that " Nissan is the most profitable of all global automakers." Revenues rose 15.4% for 2004 and
"achieving a 20% average return on invested capital" and " operating margins landed at 10% for the year."
So, I think they have plenty of yens to fix our cars.
A:
Last i heard Toyota was most profitable.
A:
Toyota is the biggest. They surpassed GM recently.

A:
Most profitable is not the same as the biggest (percentage of sales)
Not volume. Big difference. Ask GM
A:
GM is giving cars away
2004 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro, 6SPD, sport package
1990 BMW 735i
1979 280ZX, One owner, mint condition, 30,000 miles.

A:
I'd like a vette too!
A:
It would be nice to be patriotic and buy an American car (now that GM is tanking), but Detroit just doesn't offer a car with the styling, price range, and reliability of the Z.
They had a chance to catch up when they got behind in the 1980's, but ignored the opportunity.
I rented a Cadillac DeVille while on business last month and couldn't keep the damn thing on a straight track on the highway...it kept drifting. The build quality and materials were horrid. I'll stay Japanese, thank you.
A:
The only thing my Z is reliable for is eating my tires.... Many others have a transmission problem. Once my lawsuit with Nissan is settled I am sure as hell not buying another Nissan for a very very long time, if ever, again.
