Same with Holden, Toyota, etc. All the car manufactures are making their Australian arms R&D plants.

It's relevent to V8SC, which this section covers almost exclusively.
In case you weren't aware, GTRMagic is one of our esteemed moderators, and an anal one at that. I'm sure if he felt it belonged elsewhere, he wouldn't have posted it here. |

Also good that Ford & Holden will both be designing and engineering here for other markets but for sure we're going to miss the manufacturing and the myriad businesses that have fed from it. |

Australia has lost all our icons. If we stopped the imported garbage or limited it then Australian plants would have faired better. Thanks Australian Government, no Ford, no Holden and now no Toyota. Not to mention many others
