Indy seeks return of U.S. Grand Prix for 2009 {Autoblog}

Mar 19th 2008 7:43PM I would rather have no US Grand Prix than one at Indy. I went one year...never again. There is no support from the city that F1 is even in town and the whole atmosphere is dead. The track isn't even in a nice part of town and there's no "party" feel like there was at Montreal. The Canadian Grand Prix is the only one to go to for folks in North America. With no Indy Grand Prix, there's at least hope that one will be added to a city that can appreciate it. I say Vegas, LA, Miami, or a host of other more sensible places than Indy.

Daimler considers shutting down Maybach {Autoblog}

Mar 17th 2008 1:14PM MB didn't do enough to differentiate the brand. The car was seen as the glorified S-Class that it was, and considering that Maybachs were sold in MB dealers, people could easily compare the two and so they wondered aloud why there was such a premium for the Maybach when the S-Class was pretty much just as good. Additionally, when you pay $300,000 for a car, you don't want it confused for a "lowly" S-Class.

BMW, on the other hand, mandated that BMW and Rolls-Royce's cannot be sold under the same roof and that the two brands should be as distinct as possible. That worked. I'm glad the Maybach is dying.

VIDEO: The future of motoring, circa 1960 {Autoblog}

Feb 2nd 2008 11:55PM Not sure what indicators you're looking at but economists look at GDP growth. For the US, GDP grew just over 2% for 2007. Small no doubt, but more importantly, it's positive. The US is NOT in a recession despite what people may want to think. The US economy is down (not to mention the dollar), but it's not as dramatic as people (such as the foreign media) would probably want it to be.
