AMG Cars Will Stick Around for a Long Time
With all of the new regulations on cars today and everybody’s concern over the environment, do you ever think that AMG cars could suffer as a result?
I don’t think so. AMG cars are going to be around for a long time. Even if 90 percent of the world turns to hybrids and cars with the same horsepower as a riding lawn mower, there will still be many car enthusiasts that refuse to give up the AMG cars. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, but some places are trying to impose regulations that will make them either illegal or, at the very least, less than desirable.
Ernie Burskey of Michigan isn’t happy about the way AMG cars are promoted. “Car companies should promote safe and efficient driving plus the value and quality of their brand.” Instead, he says, too many TV ads emphasize “speed and somewhat dangerous driving.”
Whether it’s commercials for AMG cars or the dangers of tobacco, people always think it’s their business to stick their nose where it doesn’t belong. Why do people think they can impose their feelings on major corporations and the way they advertise their products? Where has personal responsibility and decision gone? I, for one, think car companies should be able to advertise any way they see fit. If consumers can’t handle the power and speed of AMG cars, it’s their responsibility to take that into account before purchasing one.
Do you agree or am I totally out in left field on this one?
