There is someone who knows something about that new TVR factory which was planned to be built in Brazil? And what about the Malaysian factory? There are any plans to produce Tuscans there? I´m waiting for a LHD Tuscan...

As far as I know they are planning to produce complete cars, but just the Tuscan, at least this moment. The target would be south american market (Brazil mostly), but I´ve heard something about sending them to USA also. So, finally we would see some of these beasts down here in Brazil...

In past years had been sold here about 40 Ferrari´s/year and about 80 Porsche´s/year, plus some more Jaguar´s, Lamborghini´s, Maserati´s. Of course our market is smaller than Europe or USA, but as the price of a Tuscan should be about a third or a quarter compared to a Ferrari (US$300.000,00) or a Porsche, I imagine they can sell about 300 or 400 cars/year in Brazil plus more 300 in other latin countries (Argentina, Chile, etc.). There are a lot of people here who can pay US$90.000,00 (this appears to be the price they want to sell them) and would like to have a performance car. Unfortunately I don´t belong to this group...
