Sheesh.

Sorry but let's get back to bitching about how shoddy the Chinese,
North Korean's, Chryslers, Fords, Toyoyo's etc, etc are...

In the interests of open-mindedness, Korea's Hyundai has come a long way and
some of its models now compete well with Honda and Toyota.

And yes, I hate to admit this! But there was a time when Hondas weren't such a
great car (early 1970s?), either, right?

When I was a youth many decades ago "made in Japan" usually meant cheap and
shoddy of anything. How things have changed!

While in China we were told that the number 1 selling car in China is
the Buick. The Chinese love it.

Remember the old joke that something cheap was made by
the J. A. Pan Company?

Remember that special Chinese paper you used to be able to get for your
typewriter? You know, Tai Ping Paper? (think, now...)
