Russia was making T-34 while West was making car

Skoda was a state owned company, its done well since it was privatised too.
>>79908935
They do, they just aren't here.
The whole Cold War kinda made it hard to compete on the Euro and American markets.
All money spent on gulag and Sputnik. Interesting in concrete quarters, comrade?

>Skoda
>Dacia

The same reason France does not have a major international auto company.
They suck at it.

Russians actually invented the SUV in the first generation of the automobile -- their muddy spring thaw necessitated giant wheels and oversized shocks and struts.

dacia is french familia
>>79908935
Ever heard of Marussia?
>>79908935

You never said it had to be a GOOD major automobile company, but it's a thing.
And the closest thing to actual car we producing

You really have a warped view of my country. All these ironic maymays has let you believe what ever the media covers is now our whole country that has a handful of states bigger then your entire country.
I don't care enough to start shit, but chill. Those homicides are all(most) black on black and hood habbenings. Separate the black population alone and compare per capita and WOW ITS FUCKING NOTHING.
Get a little perspective and stop believing everything you read and see here. It's a "take it with a grain of salt" thing.
>>79911027
goes both ways pal
>>79909845
you mean that company that finishes dead last in formula 1?
>>79910812
>not having a blue coupe
Dunno man, girls love it. In Estonia, Latvia, Finland and Sweden alike.
We arent good at producing commodity goods
Only military and military related accessories
>>79911904
These girls you're meeting...
...do you meet them on street corners?
Because if you do, I'm certain they would be attracted to ANY car that stops for them...
>>79908935
Because tiny European countries teamed up with USA to prevent Russia from ever reaching its full potential. It's literally all of Europe + USA vs Russia. It's hard to compete when almost the entire world is against you.
>>79912438
Regular girls. They compliment on the car all the time. It's really nice and good sportive vehicle for a decent price. Maybe having F10 M5 2015 helps too to be considered as a man who has good automobile taste, but I prefer RS for most time.
