Ghosn is a very good businessman. GM could have benefitted from his knowledge.

GM is living up to its nickname of "General Morons" again. Whoever heard of someone demanding money from his rescuer for the privilege of saving them?

Yes, I know. He's really a "star" in Japan for the great job he did for Nissan. I hope he will do the same for Renault now and, maybe, for Ford...

Yeah...but RENAULT? FIne French Touring Automobiles? I used to have a soft spot in my head for them. With therapy and a '98 V8 Dodge Durango I think I'm finally over that. Oh there are flashbacks at times...

I had several Renaults including a 68 R-16, a few R-5's (LeCar) and an R-21(Medallion). The R-16 was the best of the lot IMO. Even so they made much better lawn ornaments and homes for Mom Natures less fortunate creatures than automobiles.

I swear they broke down so mcuh we used to use the sites of the breakdowns as driving directions. "Go to where the white R5 lost i t's brakes and hit a pole and then turn left. About a half mile later you'll see a huge stain on the road where the red R5 threw a rod. Turn right and go to where The Medallion lost it's timing gear. Another right to where the R16 blew it's radiator and you're there."

I swear that's all true!

That said I have a friend in Italy who drives an OLD r6 and he claims it's great.
