I thought the website was pretty cool actually, but hey.

Probbaly too busy working on the car to work on a website.

Quote from Christopher Raemisch :

The ONLY car in the US market that is still live axle is the Mustang, and that is for nostalgia proposes and to keep costs down. Live axles have not been used in a production car with any type of performance in the states for ages… but hold onto your perceptions, they are extremely accurate and provide useful insight to the US auto market...

Don't go confusing people with facts now.

Quote from Christopher Raemisch :

Ohh I forgot to mention that ALL American cars use live axles and leaf springs, yes even the front wheel drives..

You better be joking... I have a front wheel drive American car and it has neither live axles nor leaf springs.

Quote from 5haz :

where they build one concept of a stupidly over the top car, and then go bust within a year because nobody is interested

Not Saturn. They just re-badge Opels. Or, the old Saturns (I drive one) were basically designed from the ground up without influences from any other car.

heres an old one for sale

Isn't that because it's really Korean?

Ouch... someone was owned, haha.

However I've yet to come across a FWD car (pickups don't count) that's been either in Autocar, Evo, or on Top Gear in the last few years that features leaf springs.

No. Unless Spring Hill, Tennessee is in Korea.

Who was owned? My car isn't Korean...

Oh, ok! :hide:

To excuse March Hare, most "american" cars we see in Europe are basically Daewoos badges as Chevrolets. Which most people find rather rediculous: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Matiz
