i wonder if the people in Japan who own mustangs and cameros get as much flack for driving imprts (to them) that people in America get for driving, civics, sentras, celicas, rsx's, etc...

what do you guys think?

 

My roommate is from South Korea, and he says that American cars (and European cars, to a lesser extent) are a major symbol of wealth and power, so I guess that kind of shows how different the markets are in different countries.

 

wow. you think thats because of the exchange rate?

 

theyre just really expensive over there. importing and all. like a skyline being like 10-30 grand more here than in japan.

 

What is the Japanese equivalent of a Geo Metro?

 

i dont know, but ill bet its made by suzuki.

 

well have you noticed all over the world it seems Mercedes are the most common Taxis and here in the states its crappy Caprices and Crown Vics?
