Re: Millennials are the most narcissistic generation ever
If my memory serves me correctly the big reason America started buying those pesky cars from Japan was the gas mileage not their durability

Most Japanese cars in North America are made in North America. It's not that they're moving all manufacturing jobs overseas, it's that there is a lot more automation.

Re: Millennials are the most narcissistic generation ever
The Japanese model built in Canada/USA/Mexico will always be inferior to the same model built in Japan. If you want Japanese, make sure it's from Japan. Same goes for European.obsidian wrote:Most Japanese cars in North America are made in North America.

Re: Millennials are the most narcissistic generation ever
I was working on three hundred thousand with my Plymouth Voyager when I quit driving, it was a 93, only thing that went wrong with it in all that time was a timing belt, I more than got my money worth.Captain Mazda wrote:The Japanese model built in Canada/USA/Mexico will always be inferior to the same model built in Japan.

Re: Millennials are the most narcissistic generation ever
You mean those Voyagers that would suddenly burst into flames or lose power steering? Also the timing belt on those things would slide off more often than a fat yank's sweatpants at a donut convention. Our family car was a 1998 Caravan and it needed a new transmission, power steering pump, and drive belt almost on a regular basis.
And that was supposed to be the reliable version of the Voyager...rofl
Face it, no one with any real knowledge of cars would ever buy American in the consumer or even luxury class.
