Why Europeans don't like Japanese car (Lexus, Infiniti, etc), honestly? Just curious. Over here in US, people praise Lexus like (porno) god

Lexus is starting to pic up. The rest we know under the name of other brands.
Japanese car in the beginning where cheap cars. They still carry that image with them aldouh i admit they have some nice car but the upperclass cars like infinity and so on we do not know. The brand doesnt exist here.

You are perpetuating a common myth about why cup holders are popular in the US compared to Europe. I'ts not that we constantly are sucking back big drinks, it's that we don't take 2 hour lunches in the US. I don't have time to sit at the local tavern or go home for lunch. I eat lunch in my car, or while I'm working if I'm lucky to have lunch, like many Americans. That's why we need cupholders.

No 2 hour lunches? Speak for yourself. One of the advantages of a software job in the Valley...

You've got to be insane. That company has got to be a sweat shop, man. SW engineer here work at home twice a week, have only 1 hour lunch, 5 hours browsing the web, and 2 hours work. Jezz, get a life in Silicon Valley, man.

Hey man, the Acura here in Europe is a Nissan (or is it Honda) with luxury. Who the heck would drive one??? And the same goes for Lexus and other kinky "Chinese" brands.

Lexus makes the highest quality cars in the world, bar none.

Absolutely the most reliable cars in existence.




That said, they are not fun like BMW. I'm willing to accept the defects and design flaws of European cars for the driving experience.

Sorry everyone, but it's just the absolute, 100% truth.
European cars are not reliable. Not like a Lexus.
Say what you will.... but BMW & Mercedes could learn a lot about reliability from Lexus.
