Who makes the best cars?

Bear in mind/consider whatever you damn well want when deciding who's the best - but as a guide - things such as price, performance, variety, design, prestige, build & materials quality, safety, residuals, maybe even fuel economy.

I'd like to suggest that German cars are, on the whole.....a bit of a rip off.

touch paper lit, stand well back everyone

Maybe after the bare knuckle fist fight has finished - we could have a poll?

Cool.

Which model is it?

Let's see if we can replace it with something better, that came from Japan.

Neither. It's an unanswerable question. They both produce good cars and they both produce rubbish cars.

Yeah, but as luck would have it - the rubbish Japanese cars cost half of the rubbish German ones.

I find a lot of Japanese cars, the plastics inside (general trim) just makes me want to say 'EUROPE' to the nearest toilet!

Some late 80's/early 90's Jap cars were horrid inside.

Generally much better now though.

Because then the title would be Japanese, Italian or German.
