Exactly right -- and the sound track of this vid shows that even our popular "football meat pies kangaroos and Holden cars" jingle was a direct steal from their "baseball hot dogs apple pie and Chevrolet" campaign.
Good riddance I say, and as soon as our "local" manufacturers disappear there will be no need to "protect" a defunct industry. Accordingly there should be no excuse for our vehicle pricing not to assume parity with that of overseas markets. Dreaming??
