On average Japanese cars cost more. If you remove the name plates from most
cars and just drive them most would be satisfied. Its just that so many
people take hype as gospel. I know one person who says she doesnt like to
even be seen in an American car, why I asked her, she gave a basic response
that they were junk. I asked her what she owned, oh but she never owned a
car at all, she was 19 or 20 or so. I asked what her parents had, she said
they have alway had toyotas, nissans or whatever, never American. So there
you go... the epitamy of ignorance abounds. I hope you are not caught up in
it. Its like rap music, the most F'ed up music ever, with no talent
performers spewing filthy lyrics with no melody and a violent beat, yet a
generation of people know it really sucks but they listen just to be
considered cool. Then they actually start to beleieve its good. Weak minds
make weak souls.
