Port of Rotterdam

Actually i am in a hunting period, looking to buy some cars. And it seems that the US market is great. Probably the exchange rate is for help, but the qualitiy and offer is much better than in Europe.
Practically all my friends, acquaintances (car dealers, investors) are buying from the US.
 
Interesting. I wonder if this is a lack of supply issue on the European continent --- or if this is increased demand?

Out of curiosity, how do they do their searches in the US?

Bring a Trailer?
Hemmings?
Various Consigners?
Etc?

Yes the dollar is weak and getting weaker, and the US market for these cars is not well. But US spec is an issue.
 
Oh that's fascinating. Given that the US Fed has signaled a series of interest rate hikes over the next couple of quarters, it is interesting to see USD go DOWN compared to EUR. I wonder if this is because of the strength of the economic expansion in EUR-denominated countries is "more better news" than US interest rates hikes?
