Are the cars being produced at max capacity or is DCX holding back? If DCX is holding back, don't they realize what a bad idea that is? Don't they think they should ride the wave and sell as many as they can as fast as they can before the car becomes long in the tooth? I've heard people say "they learned their lesson from the PT Cruiser," but to me that seems like they learned the wrong lesson: the PT Cruiser didn't stop selling because they sold too many too fast, but because with time it lost it's appeal. If they made them slowly, they would have sold a few cars and never seen profit dollar 1.

On a less serious note, where the frick-frack is the car my dad ordered on 2/5/05?
