To be honest....

It's all about personal preference.

I PERSONALLY.... do NOT like Japanese cars.



It's kind of like the old joke (BONUS POINTS if you get it):

Heaven and Hell

Heaven Is Where:

The French are the chefs
The Italians are the lovers
The British are the police
The Germans are the mechanics
And the Swiss make everything run on time

Hell is Where:

The British are the chefs
The Swiss are the lovers
And the Germans are the police
The French are the mechanics
The Italians make everything run on time

My take on that......is that if AMERICANS could: design a car with an Italian coachbuilder, German Engineering, Japanese Economy and Reliability and Swedish Safety..... With the AMERICAN POWER and SIZE............... "Heaven"?


YES... as AMERICANS.... we want our Cake and EAT IT TOO... (just DON'T finance it!!!!!!). And WHY NOT? We have a unique combination of wide open land and nearly ALL of our own natural resources. So CULTURALLY....Yes... we want our cake and eat it too! Of course it's 2012 and we all woke up from our wasteful party days with a WICKED hangover..............

I DID.......... end up buying a car. (JUST brought it home).

It IS Japanese............

And I will reveal it in a new thread.........
