Look at the F-150, Mustang, Fusion, Taurus, etc. All of them are kicking but sales wise and review wise. "Ford will never be in a position to earn much money per car" Are you serious? There is still big profits in the truck market. You also missed the article on how consumers are asking for more ECO-BOOST motors in the Taurus cars. It clearly states it is boosting the profits. How about the Ford Transit. They already have an electric version of it. Keep your blinders on. Ford and Hyundai have been the ones to watch.

You go on and on about BMW being some sort of industry leader. There is plenty of room for others. Name me one thing BMW has done that Audi hasn't done. They've got V8's and V10's that go screaming past 8,000rpms too.

Premium Megacity?? Haha. That is untested waters. So by your thinking BMW is catching up to Nissan with their Leaf that goes on sale this Dec.
The NSX offered equal hp/liter with vastly superior reliability 10+ years ago. Look up dynos, the car is massively under-rated and will run high 12s in the 1/4th stock.

Let me put it this way, I'm VERY glad I bought Ford stock when it was at it's low, because I have a feeling I'll get my money back 10 fold in a decade or so.
