Just read in the newest AutoWeek, that Morgan will once again be importing
cars to the USA. One dealership on the left coast, another on the right.
Morgan is expecting to export 36 cars next year. The dealership in
California expects to have cars by the spring. Put your orders in now.  :-)

Bryan, sounds like Morgan should have gone "belly-up" years ago.  However
you
can get a new Morgan if you are willing to get on a two year factory
waiting
list.  Cheers.
