The same was true of most European cars in the 80s to the UK. My dad drove to Germany to buy a Merc 190E direct from a dealer who sold RHD cars, as it was 25% cheaper than a UK car due to local taxes

10-Speed Schwing: In 2016 or 2017, a 10-speed automatic transmission jointly developed by GM and Ford will replace the current six-speed auto. Expect a whopper of a ratio spread.

Europe Gets the IRS: This will be the first Mustang—aside from the 1999–2004 SVT Cobra—to boast an independent rear suspension. Among its other benefits, an IRS will help to give the car credibility in the European market.

Demand is outstripping supply world wide, so much so the Chinese are paying £50k extra to jump the queue

Consumer Reports, whatever you feel about them, has been adamant that automakers should be dinged for having dinky, complex, unresponsive infotainment systems. Car designers hate buttons, but people still live them.
