they don't, really

asian cars typically just have smaller motors and require less fluids and have less amenities that require less fine-tooling

otherwise they both need oil changes, brake repairs, coolant flushes, etc.

The Japanese and Germans have different approaches to manufacturing... The Japanese design cars for their manufacturability, while the Germans design cars for the end product, so Japanese products tend to be less prone to manufacturing defects.

Japanese cars are cheaper, if we look on the whole there's a lot more high performance German cars than jap cars. Unless you're some retard who buys a Volkswagen.

I'll take my accord or Camry any day over your over engineered status symbol.

People with common sense drive cheaper Asian cars. With the leftover money, they are more often able to do their maintenance. Idiots with not enough trying to look like they are wealthy are generally the ones buying German cars nowadays. They don't do their maintenance like they are supposed to because they can't fucking afford it.
