Comments by "John D" (@johnd8892) on "How the American Car Failed in Europe" video.

  1. US cars are so expensive to convert to right hand drive for Australia that the few available struggle to get into the top 100 best selling models. Hard to think of any car make that does not have right hand drive available ex factory. Even exotics like Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche.

  2. Some of the story and issues also describe Australia, far away from Europe. A big cost is needing to have the car converted to right hand drive for our driving on the left. An issue for most American cars except the Ford Mustang and Corvette C8 that are available in right hand drive from US factories.

  3.  @coover65  yes I did mention the conversions, but that high cost is keeping those out of the top 100 models sold per year in Australia. Swamped by the vehicles already in right hand drive and below the luxury car tax limit.

  4.  @duke6321  Porsche pricing and service costs in Australia put it in the exotic category. Not an everyday car. Not in the top one hundred makes of car models sold in Australia ever. Insurance cost very un ordinary. Conditions in Germany unlike most countries I can assure you.
