Tericainyaass ™ See even if GM said it will sell just 1000 Z06s people wont stock over and drool over it and the price wont go as high as Fords prices go Ford even though it seems like a weaker brand in some peoples mind is a more powerful brand, in fact Ford is the most powerful American brand by a long shot www.forbes.com/powerful-brands/list/#tab:rank Check this list, Ford is almost in the neck of Audi in brand power, I know its difficult to digest but once we get to Europe you will understand what I mean, in Europe GM has 0 image, and we all know how much quality fed people Europeans are and the only US brand that survived Europe is Ford, they are 4th best seller in Europe too, best is VAG,2nd PSA, 3rd Renault-Nissan group. But more than sales the image Ford has made with cars like Fiesta,Focus,Mondeo and specially their sporty derivatives is so damn huge that GM/Dodge cannot come evn close to it, and most people know that investing in a special Ford is only likely to appreciate in value rather than depreciate That said I am not telling GM/FCA is weak but they too are damn cool, but Fords brand power is strong, it wont take a beating that easily
@ponygt66298 жыл бұрын
***** I agree tgat the z06 is a better car than gt350r dude, see I am a Ford guy cuz I drive a Fiesta ST and GM dosent have anything like that innits line up, Ford is the onlu brand on earth to have FWd,AWD,RWD,performance cars and a proper mid engine rwd super car and a super truck the Raptor, lets leave that See I like GM too, I love the C7 Stingray as its worlds cheapest and most affordable supercar, I love Cadillac CTS and ATS too, See but the value Ford cars can pull with special edition and limited edition vehicles are due to its brand power, Ford survived Europe while Chevy ,Cadillac failed hard , its not easy to survive in Europe among sea of Beemers,Audis,etc which sell like Toyotas in Europe, the image special edition Fords have is a lot better than GM special vehicles thats why people r ready to pay such insane price tags
