Is there really any other Car Companies in New Zealand that are selling 'large' cars in the sort of volume that can support a racing program? The Toyota Aurion doesn't really sell well so that would be a no there and the euro's have a pretty small market share? Maybe:
  • Toyota Camry
  • Hyundai i45
  • Honda Accord
  • Mazda 6
They'd probably sell enough of those to support a racing program, but I don't think that the kind of people that watch V8 ST's are going to be the market they're aiming for and they are all a class lower (in size) than the Commodore & the Falcon?
