Grew up believeing that we didn't buy German cars. Weird, but that was the norm. We (parents, grandparents, etc.) drove GM crap (Caddy, Buick, Olds, even a Corvette) forever. Then my old man went turning Japanese. Drove Acuras for years and years. Now they drive a Benz and an Audi. Ha! I never really cared. I've had a VW and a TT over the years. I just don't like the high maintenence costs of a german car. They do have solid engineering, though.
