尽管汽车消费对大部分人而言还是一个遥远的梦，但有着购车欲望和实力的人也不在少数，而就是这有实力的少数人也往往在汽车市场外徘徊。问题到底在哪？仅仅是因为入世临近造成人们持币待购心理吗？本刊驻上海、重庆、广州、天津的记者，或以间接采访、或以亲身经历，从不同侧面对汽车消费市场刺激失灵的原因作了一番剖析。 Although car consumption is still a distant dream for most people, there are also many people who have the desire and strength to buy a car, and it is that powerful people who often wander outside the car market. Where is the problem? Is it just because people are holding money waiting for purchase just because they are on the WTO? Our correspondents in Shanghai, Chongqing, Guangzhou and Tianjin made an analysis of the reasons for the failure of the auto consumer market from different aspects through indirect interviews or personal experiences.
