Comments on: Renault-Nissan-GM talks to move forward http://www.leftlanenews.com/renault-nissan-gm-talks-to-move-forward.html Car news, reviews, and specs for the auto-industry Fri, 10 Feb 2012 21:54:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: canut4ever http://www.leftlanenews.com/renault-nissan-gm-talks-to-move-forward.html#comment-183134 canut4ever Tue, 04 Jul 2006 01:55:12 +0000 http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/07/03/renault-nissan-gm-talks-to-move-forward/#comment-183134 It is because Mr. Kirk realized that GM needs a cost cutter like Ghosn with a vision for nice innovatively styled products unlike managers at GM. There was no way for GM to lure Ghosn away from Renault so a partnership is the next best solution. And just maybe the Nissan/Renault/GM alliance will help GM to stay with the crown as the biggest carmaker of the world. Staving off the threat of Toyota for a while.

You dont get to choose who is gonna bail you out... beggars can't be choosers. Plus Toyota has more money and the best credit rating in the industry, why would they want to bring im some loser like GM to their portfolio. I guess since Bush basically turned down any talks with the Big 3 execs they realized they arent gonna get some bailout like the airlines do. A government bailout IS WELFARE... funny how rich people love welfare but pretend it's only for the poor. But the airlines are a crucial part of our economy for the service they provide, not the number of jobs they give to americans. I guess when you're own government won't help you out you have to run to the french for help. THIS IS EFFING HILARIOUS.... honestly, i can't really come to terms with how funny it is to see GM jumping at a shareholders order and running to the french for help... someone please help me phrase my happiness They arent going to toyota because thats not how this game works?

Why couldn't they have gone to Toyota? I like Nissan. I've never had a bad one. Heck I've got a Sentra with 234,000 miles on it and it's still going stong. But if GM gets in there and starts influencing things I might have to make the move to Mazda. Why did it have to be Nissan/Renault? Why couldn’t they have gone to Toyota? I like Nissan.

The stock in GM will go higher and higher... Then comes the sell off and the downfall. This is shaping up to either be the best thing that's happened to GM for a while, or the path to bankruptcy for GM and a major downfall for Nissan/Renault. Of course, Kirk will come out smelling like roses with more money in his pot o gold. Kirk must be loving this. The stock in GM will go higher and higher… Then comes the sell off and the downfall.
