J-150 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 long term, it costs money to keep Aston around. They add nothing to Ford. Hell, they are even powered by modified Ford engines. Their dealer network has nothing to do with Ford. Their racing adds nothing to Ford. I think this division is purely for senior execs to have a sporty weekend car on the company dime.

swenson88 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I agree. Bill Ford Jr. has one! LOL But wasn't there news not too long ago that AM was profitable? Why sell a brand that is actually bringing in more money than you spend on it? Just for some quick cash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make a LOT more sense to sell an absolute dog like Jaguar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
