Japan because they've proven themselves to be quality and cheap. A brand new Honda or Subaru is better in every way than a new Ford or GM.

Japan

ive owned my share of vehicles over the years and always buy JDM spec or Canadian spec Japanese vehicles. only thing American i will buy or own is Chevrolet 3/4 and 1 ton pickups, Titan/Tundra suck and GM has it down for hauling stuff and my camper. otherwise every car or light pickup ive owned has been a Toyota or Nissan

>>15277046

you take turbos that Japan has utilized for the last 30 years, start using them mass scale far later than the Japanese and have to label it "ecoboost". bravo

>>15277086

im hardly a GM fangirl, i dont care for any of GM's cars at all. they still make the best heavy duty pickups

ive been a mechanic for years, Fords are just a mess of breaking 2-piece spark plugs, timing chain issues, and the Ecoboost F150 pickups arent holding up too well. GM trucks have fuel pump and cooler line issues but those are far easier than dealing with broken plugs

The first publicly available car that featured turbo was an Oldsmobile and was reintroduced by BMW.

lolno. Honda makes NOTHING but bland, pigfat shitboxes with abysmal interiors anymore, Subaru is meh at best. Ford's lineup right now is pretty solid while GM has a lot of shitpiles but also a lot of good cars (latter being the C7 (fuck off Alphonse), Camaro, CTS/ATS etc.)

Looks like I'm going to trigger two groups of fangirls today.

V6>V8
>>
>>15277135

okay, so how are Fords better? i know for a fact that Ford has breaking 2-piece spark plugs, timing chain issues on the trucks, transmission issues, and the rest. i still say GM makes the best gasoline heavy duty truck and Dodge makes the best diesel

the fact that the Japanese have used turbos on more than half their vehicles since the early 80's is plain fact
>>
>>15277147

straight 6>V6, straight 6 you make more torque from no opposing cylinder bank force at the crankshaft

Corvette are dismal purely because they have pushrods and rear leafspring still though

>how are ford's better
They set faster lap times.
V6's are the future of performance. The GTR proved that by annihilating it's competitors and now Ford is doing it again, except now they have 4 times the budget. Nobody is going to survive the spanking the GT is going to give to its competitors.

If a straight 6 is better then why is the bmw m4 slower than a GTR nismo around the nurburgring?

Japan did not start producing turbo charged cars in mass scale and more that America or Europe.
in fact theyre now playing catch up to American and European car makers
