Citanest, you got it all wrong buddy! What I meant was that if you buy a 60 000$ BMW, you get damn good quality. Buy a Porsche or Ferrari, you get what you paid for...QUALITY. Where the fu** did you see me say that Porsche or Ferrari use cheap parts to make their cars??!! Get off the weed bud. Can't you read right?

It's like buying a 150$ Pyramid Amp that's good for 600w and buying a Precision Power Amp for 1200$ that's good for 600w.

Who's the better build? Which one has the better quality. It's quite evident. Price goes with quality.

PRICE DOESN'T ALWAYS GO WITH QUALITY, want proof?

Proof? Well, that's arguable.

Ok, we have some disgrunted customers here who seem to have problems with their Audi TT's. How many? 20..25? Are we to assume that all Audi's are crap because of a bad batch? Hey, it happens. Are Audi's reknown for not being reliable? I don't think so.

My friends mom's 2000 Corolla had it's auto tranny changed twice because of a malfunction. Isolated case, bad batch. Am I to assume that all Corollas are the same? That this taints Toyota's name and reliability? Nope.

Besides some isolated cases, I must say that the rule of Quality/Price applies itself at 95%. Not in all domains (like clothing) but in most mechanical and electronic applications.

Porsche, Mercedes, Audi and BMW. I am yet to see their names tainted by poor quality construction. They have made their names because of their quality and reliabilty, just like Toyota.

This is something you can't dispute.

Let's all have a beer now! Cheers! :wink:

From my experience,

The only reason I love having my AE92 SR5 is that it's always unique, because not all the after market parts I have on it are available everywhere, meanwhile just like Andrew said anyone with a Civic or an Integra could walk into any performance shop and wave the cash and drive out with a decked out car, whether cosmetic wise or performace wise. I don't find anything for my car, and anyone who has an AE92 SR5 would know what I'm talking about. But that's not exactly a bad thing.. So, every car has its advantages and disadvantages! Why are we dissing eachother?! If a Honda owner says that Toyotas are sh**, simply tell them to put their money where their mouth is and that way they'll shut up.. No need to Generalize and say all Honda drivers are a**holes!
