Houston...We have a problem!...Nobody is buying brand new cars anymore! Well they are, but not on the scale they once were. Millions of brand new unsold cars are just sitting redundant on runways and car parks around the world. There, they stay, slowly deteriorating without being maintained.

The car industry cannot stop making new cars because they would have to close their factories and lay off tens of thousands of employees. This would further add to the recession. Also the domino effect would be catastrophic as steel manufactures would not sell their steel. All the tens of thousands of places where car components are made would also be effected, indeed the world could come to a grinding halt.

Zero Hedge article ...False..

Currently May 16th, 2014, all of these cars at the Nissan Sunderland test track have disappeared? Now I don't believe they have all suddenly been sold. I would guess they may have been taken away and recycled to make room for the next vast production run.

Where do unsold cars go when they die? They don't go to America where the Mexicans hide.

Maybe you missed the point of this thread that there is no problem of unsold cars?
There was a problem Mazda had in 2006 with 4,703 brand new cars:
M/V Cougar Ace (heh, heh!)

It wouldn't surprise me if the gov't bailed out the auto industry again, but I don't think this is real.

It is an admittedly appealing idea to think that automakers, unable to sell cars, are just wildly producing them and then dumping them around the world in an endless cycle of mass production hysteria.
If I'm not mistaken this is a bit of a problem when it comes to manufacturing military equipment.
