[quote=Diego Mamani][quote=DWCAP]Considering China’s current track record I wouldnt be too worried about China taking over everything like they seem to be planning. Their food sucks, their drugs suck, their toys suck, their high tech sucks or is just a ripoff that would be sued so fast it wouldnt be funny. China is good at making lots of cheap stuff that is disposable. Itll break in a year, but who cares it was dirt cheap and served its purpose. This will not bode will for a large purchase like a car, not matter how ambishious their buisness men are.[/quote]

What you wrote was also true of Japan and Japanese products in the 1950s and 1960s. We know how that turned out in the end…[/quote]

True, but people are now talking about the Chinese as they did about the Japanese in the 80’s; and look how that turned out in the end. (Turning Japanesia…)

In all reality they are not gonna take over the world like some seem to think, and they are not gonna remain the backwater of manufacturing and industry they were up until the 1990’s. They will most likly build a world wide car company or two, just like we have Ford and GM, Germany has BMW, porsche and VW, Italy has its luxery models, India is growing tata, Japan has Toyota and Honda, Korea has kia……..

They will grow or buy their way up to compete with the big dogs of the industry and crowd out the little guys (like chrysler) alittle more. Every country has its growth spurt onto the world stage, and every one eventually sucumbs to the internal pressures unique to that country before it takes over everything. Japan did it in the 70’s and 80’s. We did it before that. China is now, then India is next in my opnion.
