Re: [MBZ] OT: Daimler' $37 billion blunder.
How different it might have been had the feds not bailed Chrysler out of bankruptcy in the 1980's (or was it the '70s) ??

Re: [MBZ] OT: Daimler' $37 billion blunder.
Yeah well back then there was a frenzy of mergers with the thinking being that volume and market share is more important than quality. As I don't have shares in Daimler I couldn't give a rats. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, July 11, 2007 12:20 AM Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT: Daimler' $37 billion blunder. > In the August issue of Car & Driver, Csaba (Chubba) Csere, provides > interesting reading on how much it cost Daimler to own Chrysler for 7 > years.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Daimler' $37 billion blunder.
In the August issue of Car & Driver, Csaba (Chubba) Csere, provides interesting reading on how much it cost Daimler to own Chrysler for 7 years. Having paid 36 billion for Chrysler and then selling it for only 7.5 billion is bad enough, but Csaba goes on to say that the 7.5 billion received by Daimler, most went back to the new Chrysler Co.. WHEEE! No wonder Mercedes has been squeezing the nickel!
