My mom has a 96 civic which she commutes with (roughly 100 miles round trip) and it currently has 215k miles. Not ONE major repair has been done to the car. Just simple maintenance (oil change, change out brakes pads, changes spark plugs, fluids, etc).
My mom also has a 2002 BMW 325 with 91k miles...and its been in the shop more this year then its been driven.
So yeah...Japanese>German

German. It may not be as reliable but its quality, design, luxury and performance.
American cars are worse than Kia
And if you say Honda, you drive a JDM civic...

We're talking about engineering here, not cost.
Deutschland! Germany is definitely # 1.
BMW
Mercedes
Audi
Volkswagen
The Mercedes S-Class = Best car in the world.
Come on the Bugatti Veyron is German. The best work of engineering on a car EVER.

- About as objective as you are going to get. The data is compiled based on owner input. They have reliability data for all makes and models for 5-7 model years in the past. Pick up an older buyers guide for even older data.
- You would be surprised by the study findings...that's all I'm going to say.

Why are y'all comparing Mercedez/BMW to Toyota/Honda? The brand-identity complex the average NTer has seared into his brain makes this a laughable discussion.
