I think that the point of the story is that Chrysler has no where near the
build quality of MB. MB's car was built so well that when sealed up not
even air could flow in/out. Chrysler wanted to see if their build quality
was similar to MB's so they could use it as an advertising thing (wouldn't
that make a great ad campaign?? our car suffocates a cat just as well as an
MB, so why pay extra for the MB??). Obviously the car wasn't sealed very
well b/c the cat got out.
Am I right or just to blind to see the forest thru the trees??
