 Clio Vs Skyline !!

This was good... stopped at the lights, driving in my stealth laser, I hear some exhaust some rumbling up ahead... 
SO a clio sport comes FLYING around the corner and let me tell you it sounded PHAT !! 
1/2 a sec later a maroon skyline rips round the corner and does a chirp into second... 
It took a while for the skyine to catch the Clio, but it overtook eventually ! (i think the clio was slowing down anyway)
but yeah.. I give the clios the thumbs up!
Fine looking and sounding car !
(but still no comparison to the 1g celica  Naturally )

Although there are high fixed costs related to shipping the car to Oz, simply increasing the price of the car will not stimulate demand for it and eventually if marketing of the car - which seems to be non-existant - in Oz is not successful, it will eventually be "what is a clio". renault seems to have taken a low volume high margin strategy with their cars i.e. like well known BMW and Merc. BUT !!! Renault has not built up a strong enough reputation in Oz, and people just will not pay so much as 40k for those cars !
just coz it comes from the other side of the world, it cannot command such a high price.
so.. it's a good car, though too expensive.
