And I can assure you. EVERY single manufacturer Ive ever come across has built and designed their fair share of dog shit cars. Every one of them. And everyone of them have also built some GREAT cars.
Well of course. European cars are no more reliable than American, in fact I'd say overall they are worse. But if you compare Japanese to American, well.......The Japanese usually insist on higher specs from their parts suppliers.
