For example, Mecum Auctions is known for selling muscle cars, but they also have several all-Corvette auc- tions. The only way to learn these differences is to ex- perience auctions firsthand or talk with collectors who have. It may be more cost effective to send a pre-World War II classic car to a sale 2,000 miles from your home to an auction known for cars similar to yours.

Becker-Ritterspach Jutta C.E. Becker-Ritterspach Abstract This paper explores the emergence consolidation and challenges to India s small car path in the passenger car industry. The paper shows that this path can only be properly understood if we consider the interplay of a wider range of context conditions including political social economic and infrastructural conditions. The paper shows that while the state has played a pivotal role in creating the path it was the socio-economic conditions that channelled the political choices. The paper also shows that although the government s role in developing and sustaining the path has changed from an entrepreneurial to a framework setting role the prevailing socio-economic conditions keep channelling the political action towards a small car path. Keywords Small car path Indian automobile industry India Maruti-Suzuki TATA Nano 1 Introduction Unlike other emerging markets such as China the Indian passenger car market and industry has followed a pronounced small car path. The latest expression of this development is the introduction of the low cost car Nano by TATA.

The paper also shows that while the State has played a pivotal role in creating the path it was the socio-economic conditions that channelled the political choices. The paper
