german cars or american???

despite the fact that i like certain american cars i am a fan of german cars...especially qualitywise i think german cars are first... 

I respect German cars as being very well made.  However I can't stand the stigma that goes with them.  I would choose just about anything over one.  Porsche is the only German maker I really like.  I would never get a VW, BMW, Merc, or Audi.  And I don't even like Lamborghini now because it's owned by VW. 

I'm VERY into cars and probably know more specs for all cars including German cars than most people but I just don't like them.

German cars in general are superior to American cars but of course u have to pay for it. Of course the Corvette is better than all German cars :)MichaeltheCM

Is that why the M5 gets 12 MPG City, 16 MPG Highway

And the faster, Z06 gets 16MPG City, and 26 MPG Highway

But i would still take an M5 over a Z06 any day.. 

Neither.  When I buy another car it will likely be another Honda.  Nice and reliable.duxup

Same here.  My 03 Accord is the best car I've ever owned.

Dude the M5 is not even in the same leage as a Z06!  The Z06 beat both the Ferrari F430 and 599 on the Nürburgring!  BMW does not make a production car that could even come anywhere close to that!

And the 2005 Cadilac CTS-V beat the M5 on the Nürburgring.  At least compare apples to apples!

Hondas are good, I had an (Acura, same thing) RSX for 6 years.  But I'm getting bored with their lack or RWD and V8s.  The TSX and TL should both be RWD.  The S2K is about the only Honda I would want at this point.

My Honda is a good 12 years old now.  I haven't had a single problem with it.  I just get regular maintenance done and it always runs.

WTF are you rambeling about?  I said the faster Z06 gets better MPG then the slower M5...Im simply making the point that the  German M5 is a gas hog...

And dude....The CTS-V would get smoked by a new M5 around Nurburing...The 2005 CTS-V must have beat the older 400HP M5,  not the V10 M5 with 500 Horsepower, and a 8300 RPM Redline.. 

German cars, by far.Bourbons3

yup

It's because you downplayed how great the Z06 is.  Comparing it to a M5 is an insult when it even beats the Zonda, F430, and 599.  Like I said the M5 is not even in the same league as the Z06. 

And yes that was the 2005 models for both M5 and CTS-V.  But don't be to sure about the new M5, it's a boat at over 4,000LBS and Caddie has a new DTS-V with 500 HP (z06 engine) coming out to.  I'm sure it will also beat the M5 as that is the only reason they even make a V model in limited numbers.  Just to beat the M5 and show BMW up.

Well im gonna say American cars.Jowell91

I like German cars.marolia

same here

british cars are the best.

I like all cars! :shock:

But if I had to choose, it would probably be an M3 or M5. As much as I like the Vette, I love the interior and luxury of the BMW's. But hey, that's just me. :D

actually... amerian cars are more reliable on avg. than german cars i believe. but not as relaible as japanese..

unfortunately american ****needs some work..

edit.. wtf.. the word "stile" got censored...  stupid html

And I don't even like Lamborghini now because it's owned by VW.

I'm VERY into cars and probably know more specs for all cars including German cars than most people but I just don't like them.

basersx

Isn't Lamborghini owned by Audi?

 And disliking a car for the country of origin from it's company... dude... that's messed up

American. If I had my choice between a 1970 Chev Pickup, or any German car, it's a no brainer.

Yeas and Audi is owned by VW.  So its all the same, its all VW.  And I'm sorry you think that its messed up to not like a car because of where its made but the reality is most people have opinions about cars because of where they are made. 

American cars have got to be the worst manufactured cars in the world. Sure some of them look good (the Mustang for example), but all they can do is go in straight lines and drink petrol.nickmag

And they have crappy plastic interiors, even Volkswagen toke care of their interiors.

American cars do have a great sound though. 

German and Japanese

better bang for you're buck, although I do have a challenger too though, but new american cars are a shame.

Neither, I'd pick a Japanese Car. Reliable and most get more than 30mpg.

Yeah,  the M5 is heavy,  its around 1000lbs heavier than a Z06...But DTS-V or whatever you wanna call it is also going to be over 4000lbs... 

I love bmw's american cars are not for drivers only drag racers.BrooklynBomber
