I remember them doing this a few years ago as well. The ad said something like "30 years ago we were the standard of the world, but not recently....." I believe it was in Motor Trend, or maybe one of the other rags.

I obviously didn't work then, why they feel it will work now, is beyond me.

Convincing people that American cars are as good, or better than Japanese counterparts, is like pulling teeth. I know, I do it everyday. The Foriegners I work for, will not hear it. If it aint a Toyota or a BMW, they want nothing to do with it. Sad really.
