What are all of you're opinions on the different cars that we see in the import scene?
I mean obvioulsy there are the Japanese built cars (Toyota, Honda, Mazda, and Nissan being the biggest imo). But there other companies have played off the idea of a sporty compact car w/ a little I4 that has a lot of potential and appeals to younger people. Some U.S companies didn't really start building these type of cars until semi-recently, and if you look at the Euro-tuner scene is mostly VW's(even thier selection is slim) and not many more European companies build these types of cars. So do you think that the companies like Chevy, Ford, and VW are just "wannabes" for making cars that are similar to alot of the Japanese companies' cars? Discuss.... -------------------- |

toyota arnt owned by anyone, they are a family owned company, the biggest in the car buisness unlike ford etc.
thankfully they have always made their own engines... well mostly bar some of the heads in the top of range models, the 3rd gen head was modified design by yamaha and so was the 1jz GTE ford cant make engines for crap though, hence the good ones are tuned. its weird, dunno about over there but here my gt4 gets called....
