    audi-never follow or the tv one- it's better to lead than to follow

    nissan- driven

    Toyota- everyday people.

    BMW- the ultimate driving machine.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.
