well maybe they are better than they made them in the late 70's 80's but they are not a good investment. A japanese car is a better investment if you drive a lot. So a car being 17000-25000 USD this is not a trivial expense...I had a ford I bought for $26,000 (99 fort contour svt) and it died on me with 78000 miles. So I hate f'ing ford and I want them to go under!
