Milan,

re: I believe recently, the latest Mazda Miata was introduced with the claim that there was a 15hp boost in the engine, whereas all measurements indicated a 5-10hp loss. Mazda was sued etc., and was forced to make an offer whereby consumers could go so far as return the car for a refund in some cases.

By making it almost fatal for auto companies to mislead the public, these numbers have a lot of teeth to them.


Interesting, I wasn't aware of that, thanks.

I wonder if anyone on this thread sees a parallel between this situation and AMD's new Model Hurtz scheme?

John
