"Cars for the rich" is not their MO.

Their MO used to be "The People's Car".

The People do not buy new cars without massive credit anymore, and in general do not buy new cars at all.

“They do not buy new cars” is a great way for car manufacturers to lobby for more benefits.

Looking at sales numbers, “they don’t sell as much as they used to” is waaaay more accurate.
