Default Oz Super Cars?

Mates, I've had this thought for a while. I hope I can introduce some decent input on the thread. All goes into the pot, but please, just serious input requested.

So we have lost the Big 3. No apologies to Toyota, I hope you keep building good, world class cars here in Oz. It's not for no reason that you have a large market segment.

We will shortly have some huge empty sheds, full of tooling equipment, slowly rusting.

Is it possible to combine our workers, skills and technology to actually build a truly original, world leading motor car. I envisage 5 classes of vehicle, from fwd city to high performance (sorry lads, but we have to accept that NA V8's are dinosaurs waiting for the asteroid, keep chomping the evergreens if you disagree) sports cars - SUV's.

Put the wheel in front of the left seat for most of the models, discounts for RHD models (of course, normally we have to pay more), get a government that is not run by foreign concerns (in the auto sector). Surely this Great Nation Australia can present to the world the best of our Engineering and Skills.

We have given the world so much in (Florey, Marshall and Warren, please add to the list...)
