Well, that can depend on the theritory where your factory and markets are set. If you're selling in Europe it's no wonder they're not buying car with a war on. The US market was less interested in cars for a while as well, but you could still do well there (just don't go for too fancy stuff - simply basic models).

Well, I made it through the war. I had about 2 mil. in the bank (not savings), but by the time the war was over (1918, I think) I only had about 50k left. I had 3 models, and about 5 assm workers for each car, and I had fired all my researchers (they were going to go on strike). Maybe I'm doing something wrong I can't even make half the profit the competition is making. You would think that this would be easier since I'm playing at the easy difficulty, but then again I've only been playing for about a week...

Sort the files according to last modification date. Logically, the savegames will have the highest date.

No matter what I do, I can't sell cars outside of my native region. I open offices, setup advertising, set prices, setup the supply lines, and yet no sales. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, and I've owned this game for about 8 years!

The markets gradually open up as the game progresses. You should be able to sell in N Europe and anywhere in N America in the beginning.

The business model doesn't make sense. It behaves irractically and it frusterates the crap out of me.

I liked the game, but it was a bit to easy to blow the competition out of the water within 2 years. After ww2 the game becomes to complex when you have 8-10 modells and have to remember in what part of the world you build what so you know where to import them from.
