Literally jews. Western governments signed away their industries in the 1970s under the lima declaration. An agreement under which first world countries uplift developing countries and fuck their own shit up by moving their manufacturing overseas.

Unions, as usual. Higher wages meant higher prices for cars and Commodores/Falcons just weren't worth it.

1) westoids want to get pait too much
2) The government stopped subsidizing local car industry
3) innovation and build quality was in the can by the end and because of 1) and 2) there wasn't enough in the coffers to improve the situation.
4) Market trends were being completely ignored. Economical eggshit SUVs killed gas guzzler sedans but Ford and Holden failed to adapt.
5) AUD was pretty strong at the end of the GFC so this didn't help industry in competing with already superior products being imported
