Computer@Produktion 1-2/2001, S. 64"Vlasic and Stertz a riveting tale about gentlemen at play in the decidedly ungentlemanly game of high-stakes, international boardroom piracy. A supercharged, 200-mph read all the way." - Brock Yates, Outlaw Machine
"This is a clear-eyed expose of how the car business works-with a narrative that speeds you through the intrigue with all the velocity of a Dodge Viper. It plunks you right on the filing cabinets as the motor titans clash."- Robert Lacey,
"Taken for a Ride is without a doubt entertaining, readable and strong journalism." - Financial Times
