Question

what is better to buy an American car or Japanese car ???? what the advantage and dis advantages ?? please specalist ..

Answer 1

Japanese cars are better. But don't take my word for it:

http://money.cnn.com/2004/11/08/pf/autos/cr_auto_reliability/

This article states the following:

"Of the 32 car models with the highest reliability ratings, 29 were from Japan-based manufacturers. Toyota, with 16, and Honda, with 7, had the most vehicles with top reliability ratings. South Korean automaker Hyundai's Sonata earned a top spot in the ratings this year, a first for that manufacturer. "

Answer 2

You can no longer qualify American cars as having more horsepower, or Japanese cars as being quieter. Look at the Nissan Altima vs. the Ford Fusion. The Altima has more horsepower and the Fusion is quieter. Or take a look at the CTS vs. the Acura TL. The Acura has more horsepower. In fact, saying American cars are this, and Japanese cars are that is no longer relevant. For goodness sake, the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, BMW X5, Mercedes Benz ML and Nissan Maxima (amongst others) are made in the US. Many of these were designed in design studios in California. Base your decision on which car is better for you, not on the location of the manufacturers mailbox!

Answer 3

Chevy vibe is the same as a Toyota matrix
same car same plant in Cambridge or Woodstock or where ever the plant is there
so i say does it really matter buy a truck higher resale value better financing
i seen someone say KIA do not go there my wifes 02 KIA sportage has been towed to the dealership 19 times literally 17 times for the same thing good warranty tho

Answer 4

Better, by far, to get a Japanese car. I tried to buy American cars for years and had nothing but trouble especially with GM and Chrysler cars. Then I broke down and got a Toyota truck and it was fantastic. Since then: Japanese cars for me

American companies seem incapable to make a dependable car that is easy to repair.

Answer 5

Well, if you live in America, it's better to buy an American car. Most people on here will tell you to buy Japanese. I still like to support the country I live and work in.

Answer 6

Japanese by far. I have had three, I am at present driving a 1999 Solara SLE v 6 .I have changed tyres,brakes, one rad cap, one tail light bulb, changed oil and filter every 5,000 KL.trans oil, radiator flushed,etc. It has never had a tune up, and it runs the same as it did the day I bought it.

Answer 7

now i have an daewo (espero) car and im very pleased by it, i will never buy another car but corean or japanese; the maintenance is cheap and the performance and comfort the same. i have no disadvantage to report

Answer 8

It doesn't matter. Many Japanese cars are made in the US. and many American cars have parts made in China and Mexico.
