If car makers want incentives, then I believe they should have to work for it. Build cars people want, innovate more, basically work for the sale not just rely on blind patriotism.
I buy whatever suits my budget and I enjoy driving, I don't care where it is made.

Oh yeah - gotta love the idealism here (not Clover Moore are you?) Lets take this path and become a larger Fiji -a service and Holiday destination industry. If the might of Japan can have protectionism policies why can't we?
