Interesting that when some mention the cost of gas going over $5/gal that somehow this is going to slow down or stop performance development. Gas has been that price or much higher for years now in a lot of countries, and that hasn't killed the production of any of the cars we now have. The States is becoming less of a player in the global market and if the markets there slow down, other developing markets will emerge no doubt. Whether some of these vehicles come to the States in the future may be the question. This is a significantly different picture than in the '70's.
