Made horrible? Compare the fixing prices from American made cars to foreign cars.

You will pay double maybe even tripple the price to fix a foreign car.

Foreign... what do you mean with that? American cars are foreign. Parts are shipped in from Germany, Australia, Canada and then assembled in Mexico.

Since "foreign" cars are made better, as in reliability, they last longer without breaking down. Since they break down less, you pay less. Who said that servicing a Tundra would cost more than an F150? It depends on the dealership, warranty and insurance.

If you do not know how to maintain a car, do not get one.

I'm either going to lease a brand new car Or get about 5.5 k for mine and have to somehow come up with the difference because I need the car in May - June at the latest.

Looked at: (2012 speaking)

Hondas but all of em' look stupid.
Toyota is too much of the "family car look"
Nissan is nice with the 370z but too much a month and not good enough mpg.
Fords are nice with the Focus but only the 2012 - I'd die for the 09 focus rs

American cars are foreign? The key word is AMERICAN cars. They are not shipped from Germany, Australia or Canada. Get your facts straight first of all.

You do not pay less to fix a foreign car. The parts get shipped from a foreign country to fix the car. That's why you pay double the price.

I'm guessing your a child since you have no clue what your talking about.

I don't want another Audi or BMW or anything because it's just way too much money to fix if something goes wrong. A normal headlight bulb for instance is like 25 to have replaced, I payed 125 for the same little bulb for my Audi. I love the cars, but at 18, it's too much lol

AMERICAN cars are not made in the US... As far as I know, the ones that are have higher servicing prices due to the small amount of parts. Yes, the parts to foreign cars do get shipped (sometimes) from outside the US but the thing is, they are cheap to make and are shipped in bulk. Why do you think Asian cars are so cheap in the US? Mass production. If you find a massive gold vein, the value of gold goes down, making it cheaper to purchase. By the way, did you know that a lot of Asian cars are actually more American than 90% of American cars? You have to do more research or go to an autotech school like I did.
