GM once again demonstrates that they know nothing about building brand equity.

BMW does just fine without silly, pathetic vehicles like the G3. They weather the weak dollar and CAFE regs. In return, they have fantastic image and people will buy a BMW just to have a BMW. GM needs to learn that, even though the dollar is weak and it is not currently profitable to import vehicles, they need to stick to their guns, because the dollar will become strong again.

Same goes with fuel economy. When gas prices drop, GM will be caught will vehicles like the G3 and not enough rear-drive performance to show for it. THEY NEVER LEARN. HOW DO THEY STILL HAVE JOBS?
