Holden snubs Canberra

It's the end consumer that seems to have voted with their wallets. Imports are cheaper and have more saftey features and fruit or at least for the money. I agree, in hind sight it seems so obvious that things were headed this way. I wonder if the same is true in the states? Are there truck loads of imports there? It's fairly upsetting when you drive to work and get excited to see a VF in any guise.

This is not actually true. The Commodore is currently the no. 2 selling car (no. 1 if you include the ute).

Also there is no cheaper RWD car of any size which is cheaper than Commodore, so 'fruit' doesn't come into it.

Safety features!! Are you serious ? What import has better (or more) safety features than Commodore.
