[ITZTRU]

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

ouch! this is gonna suck!

Doubt they will stop producing parts, business will continue.

cmon Lamborghini went bust many times but kept being bought by other people/companies and happend to produce the diablo which was French if i remember correctly. Lambo is now bought by Audi which is owned by VW

Aston martin; bought by ford i think.

Maserati went bust and bought by ferrari which threw out the mc12

TVR is not british anymore, its russian

Landrover is furkn Indian

Good point but there is a very large difference....trust doesn't make cars they make them better, you don't really see aftermarket manufactures buying out other aftermarket manufactures too often

But just to clear things up (not to sound cocky, just FYI really)

1993 Maserati was bought by Fiat 1995 50% sold to Ferrari (which 90% is owned by Fiat, Enzo's sun still owns 10 last i checked) 1997 (I think) Ferrari obtained full control of Maserati, few years ago Fiat took over Maserati again

I totally disagree.

The examples you use are people making cars.

Trust do not make cars. Apples and Oranges your comparing.

The issue here is Parts & all associated.

Where you can copy parts, which is where Trusts business lies. As such all the cheap sh|t coming outta China is destroying the market.

All the copy parts coming out @ 1/3 the price (or less in some cases) due to the fact they are copied, and often poorly done at that.

Trust do all the design/Dev etc (which costs BIG money) and then some muppet comes along and does the ole copy-copy for nothing.

Performance products no longer fetch the prices they used too for companies like this… or if they do. They are selling nowhere near the volume they would back in the 90's and early 2000.

Also (as a mate just pointed out to me) think about the Jap Market... Silvias/Supra - not in production, GTR's - only just started and so on.

So hat cars are they going to make new/innovative parts for to keep business alive?

Lot more to it than examples of car manufacturers im afraid

Funny thing too to think about, if these companies stop making stuff, then China wont have anything to copy in the automotive parts

[JAS-25T]

f**k me do we need a thread in every section of the forum on this?

srsly.

[nakedterror]

Group buy on bankrupt afermarket parts company?!

I think a better observation would be to dig up all the threads of people complaining how their cheap Chinese copy doesn't fit properly and needed $XXX to fix/fit

Yeah, that'd be a wise investment.

Can only imagine how much stock they're currently holding!

Thanks for the head up dude, always appreciate clarification of info!

On another note though, amazing how many car manufaturers are sleeping around with eachother all the time ey! Like when you step into some aston martins and you find volvo parts lolz or audi parts in some lamborghinis

Pretty soon we will have the McHolden or the KFcitroen lolz

at least the bugatti veyron aint owned by volkswagon......oh wait

thats like Osama Bin Laden funding the democrats......Obama Bin Laden!
