God. I hope this does not go through. Renault makes some of the crappiest cars not only in Europe but around the world.

Nissan execs should know better. If there is a merger it will be the end of the brand, since their sales have been declining already. Nissan needs to step their game up, go back to the basics and install reliability into their cars. If the merger happens, I will never touch a Nissan product ever again, simple really.

Sorry. I could not find a solution to the link. A web search on the Financial Times' article on the Nissan/Renault alliance will take you there. Sad but it is likely going to happen because Nissan isn't making enough to go at it alone. If Renault throws them a bone and give Nissan what they want there will be an agreement.
