True. I did notice the twin cars sales were awful. Those cars also offer no horsepower, extensive options, or "real" performance for a lot of dollars....They're also Miata-like tiny...and the interiors are shoddy (tons of rattles and loose fit).

That said...even if they only sell 1000 additional cars...that's 1000 new cars to sell.
