Interesting business move for Lysholm. Turning down 7000+ units per year.

Has anyone actually read this article? The original poster posted little information then didn't come back. It would be nice to know a little more on the article, this is on it's 6th page and we only know two performance stats.
...and Car and Driver said what exactly about the GT500... (Jeez, did they pan it and that's why nary a word has been revealed or what?)

How well did it drive?
How well did it accelerate?
How well did it handle?
How well did it ride?
How comfortable was it?
Basically, how well did they like it?

WOW! ALL that info is taken out of context. You say batterys have acid and lead which are toxic. Well first of all, all cars have batterys, second lead is an earth metal. How is that pollution to the earth. The lead was taken from the Earth as lead and will be put back as lead.
As for factories... Yes factories do pollute, but we need factories for everything. whether it be film or cars. Plus where did anyone ever state the pollution of making a product? We are talking about pollution the actual products they make themselves. And although fossil fuels themselves may not be in that short of supply right now... THEY are still not that readily availiable. (Middle East, I dont think I need to say more)
And you say "old toyota" thats rediculous.... How can you compare an old car to a new car. We are comparing NEW to NEW.
Please do be stupid, Everyone here knows darn well that the Shelby GT500 will pollute more than most other New cars. ITS A FACT.
And how the f' does film pollute that badly? Really? When thrown away all it is, is a plastic.
If film is as bad as a Shelby then so are mlk cartons, and any thing else plastic for the matter. Its all a bunch of bs. You just want to argue.
Quit thinking you are "DEEP" b/c your just as ignorant as Obleeding
