I feel that this survey all what ever it is probably paid for by the company%u2019s that are mention on this site because I know for sure that GM vehicles are some of the safest vehicle out there and I am deeply offended that they are not mention. For one thing the 2008 Chevy Malibu was rated the #1 car in America over Toyota and Honda and everyone else that come in between and don%u2019t even get me started GM Pick up trucks.

Taurus has a good point, the money goes back to Japan, not very much , What Taurus overlooked or does nt know is that the Japanese carindustry in the US provides 100deredsof thousand of job for US worker including the dealer organnization owned by americans who are today the countriers millionares . without the japanese producte there would be less wealth . Japan also uses the money erned in the US to buy US Treasury Bonds in Galore in suport for the US economy. . If the Japanese should ever deside to presend the IOY 's to onle Sam , well, we might as well close the shop, / Todays card are all good, the differenc is in the design , some are more functional designed than others, others incorporate more advanced thechnologies . And designing a BMW , Lexus, VW based on Detroits Automotive Technologies , would make it a Ford or GMC in the end the al lhave a place somewhere in the global market .....

People need to understand that there are really no such things as german american japanese cars any more. Every car out there is made in a variety of countries not just one. The Honda civic which people call japanese is made in Ohio thus it is american since the profits stay with Honda of America. Most Fords are made in Mexico or Canada not the US. The Eos from VW is made in Spain Toyota makes cars in Indiana. You are actually more likely to have an american made car if you purchase from a foreign company from japan then you are buying a Ford or GM. That is just how things are. yet there is a stigma about certain car companies out there that tend to led buys certain ways. I have always been taught Ford is crap well and that is what i have seen VW lasts for ever my friend drives a 80s Jetta with over 425000 miles original engine and exhaust and he lives in Michigan, i have a Honda never has let me down another friend has a ford breaks all the time just a pile of junk.

I drove a Toyota Camry. I don't see what the fuss is all about. It was noisey, uncomfortable, underpowered, and the fit and finish were no better than the Grand Cherokee I own. If you gave me a Camry, I'd sell it. The only reason people think the Japenese products have superior quality, is media hype. If you are relying on information from Consumer Reports, you'll believe anything.

The bottom line is I'm sick and tired of people telling other people buy Japanese, or buy American, or buy German. The real point is, if these American car companies (or any car company) really gave a rats ass about our our economy, then it would be in their best interest to build better cars than the Japanese and German so that we would purchase them OVER a Japanese or German. I can see the improvement already with the Honda Accord and Chevy Malibu comparison. (The Malibu is kicking the Accords ass!!! YES!!) Okay, maybe you're American and you're convinced. However, these American car companies need to do a better job marketing to FOREIGNERS living here!! Also, if it was in their best interest to care a lot about the American people and our economy, then they would also keep the plants here!! No excuses!! So much for caring right?? I own an Oldsmobile and two Toyota's. In the Oldsmobile, my glove box is falling apart, even duct tape can't hold it back. The Camry's like a Lexus, and th

If you think that the Japanese pay the wages that they do here in the US is because they want to think again. Do you realize that all the JAP plants are built in RIGHT TO WORK states? They know that the people of these states will work for less money and benefits because they are used to it, and will work very hard to keep working for nothing. If it wasn't for the Union's struggle for workers rights in the form of the Federal Labor Board, Discrimination in the work place, Affirmative action, and OSHA, to name a few, the fine Americans in these states would earn very little, but they are able to reap the benefits of the Union Brother's and Sister's struggles by just by hanging on to the their shirt tails. Also consider that when a US auto plant shuts down or becomes idle all the businesses of that community are affected; Restaurants, Stores, Shops, and the local tax base. Yes that means your taxes go up so all that money you saved on that rice burner you can now send to the government
