True words indeed as far as marketing goes.
Except for Subaru and Suzuki - Citroen does not habe a 4X4 C4, neither does Ford have a 4X4 Focus.
Why compete and try and sell vehicles if you dont have a similar road vehicle to offer to the general public

Excellent, DTM needs a 3rd and 4th if possible manufacturer, i like DTM alot but it needs some fresh blood.

they r not winning in WRC...not selling enought cars...BECAUSE THEY R RUBBISH...the make rubish rally cars, c'z their base cars r rubish...people r confused c'z what u race has not even a single similar bolt in mass production ones...suburu and mitsu make rally cars then base their pruduction ones on them...i bet even if they go to DTM they will not win...

Its just Citroen eyeing up German automakers in a way only a guy who has lip gloss in his handbag could understand. its the whole marketing philosophy behind the C5 thing again like their ads.
But I do think it would be a smart move, and you never know if Loeb wants a change from the dirt and mud of the WRC to DTM's tarmac

i thought that DTM was German cars only, its like i don't know nascar in a way because everyone racing is racing american cars, that's including Toyota because it is Toyota of America, you know.

DTM is not only about german manufacturers. proof is the fact that Alfa was present in DTM during the best half of the 90's.
I think this is the best touring car championship in the world (way over the WTCC) and some new constructors would be welcome. Citroën is good, but a name like BMW or Ford would be even better.

Sorry - If you actually watched WRC for the last 3or 4 years you would have know that Citroen has won it - I might have missed something as i suppose winning is not good but RUBBISH instead??
