American car is very gas-consuming, and i just don't have any patience on fixing minor problems, such as dashboard light is died, loose screw in the seat and so on.
yeah the new japanese cars are not as well built as the old one, but still, they are more reliable than american stuff.
Lik, i totally agree with you. My sis lives in Ottawa, and I was surprised to see so many Kia and hyundai on the street. Indeed, if the hyundai sport car doesn't look so much like Lexus IS, I would try that car out.
Anyways, I am a fan of aerodynamic cars, such as Eclipse 2nd gen or Celica 6 gen or Prelude 5 gen. However, I cannot find any similar cars in this century....
