What brands do you think is in danger of fading away in the USA market by 2015? My list so far:
Mitsubishi - EVO VIII might not help revive the rest of the subpar product line.
Saturn - ION is pitiful and all future Saturn will be steel bodied and rehash of other GM products.
Saab - Product is good, but overprice and its niche is dying.
MINI - can one hyped up car hold a brand for over a decade? Very doubtful.
Suzuki - its cheap and competing directly with Kia. Kia is more likely to win out because of its marketing push.
Isuzu - its dying already as we speak.
Opinions?
I seriously doubt Saab is in all that much danger. Most people, myself included, think the new 9-3 is a huge leap forward from its predecessor. In fact, most dealers are already puting people on waiting lists which is not typical for Saab.
