Oh, and Mercedes and BMW don't want to make $15,000 cars because they want to be known only as prestigious and high end. and I hope you aren't talking about a stripped Jetta because there are a lot of other cars i and the rest of the world would rather have for $15k.
In your past post, you said Lexus doesnt have the 2nd tier perception, quote:
"It's the relationship with VW that gives them a 2nd tier perception compared to BMW, Mercedes, Lexus. It shouldn't matter but it's the perception that I have seen and heard. "
So which is it, make up your mind.
Its not that Mercedes and BMW doesnt want to make low price cars, its just that they dont have the know how.
So which $15000 mid size sedan would you rather have than the Jetta? A Corolla, or maybe a Hyundai Accent?
