I'm not anti-asian, and I'm not a redneck. I started the "I'm not Asian" thread in response to a WHOLE bunch of Asian specific topics on the forum. There was a bunch of talk about durian fruit, what country in Asia your ancestors were from, etc at the time.

I started this thread in response to people bashing pothead's new Pontiac GTP and saying "American cars are POS's" etc.

I'm not a redneck either, hell, I didn't even vote for Bush.
 
laust

<< Actually, it was like $6Billion.....but it was a world car platform. >>

Whats that?

By world car platform he means that the car is sold all over the world, north america, europe, asia, austrailia, etc...
 
My 80' Toyota Corolla ran for 350,000 miles before it died, and my 89' I have now is about to hit 150,000 , and you can still barely hear the engine being on.
 
When it comes to domestic cars, I only trust older MOPAR cars. I can just taste the feeling of driving a 72' cuda. 😛
 


<< Detroit stole all of Japanese Technology. It's NOT the other way around. >>



That's not entirely true. American car companies (the Big 3) always had the technology to produce small effcient engine, but at the time what was the point? During the 60's small Japanese and German cars were literaly laughed off the streets because they didn't even have a six cylinder engine. It wasn't until the first oil crisis that Americans learned the hard way that maybe small engine cars may be more practical. American cars got a bad rap during this time since no American company ever put much R&D into small engined cars.

But just like the whole AMD vs Intel and nVidia vs ATI thing, competition is a good thing! 🙂

Oh, btw, my dad's old '78 Malibu was a tank, he'd problebly still be driving it if the damn body didn't rust through due to road salt. 🙁

I do prefer Japanese cars btw.

Thanks! Curious as to why a world class car takes so much $$ to develop.
 
All cars that something happens to that is either expensive to fix or you don't know how to fix sucks!
