I agree, but at the same time some people ***** and are too picky about the most minor things. Cars need maintence. If you don't plan to get off your ass and maintain your cars, buy a brand new one and leave the old cars to the people that know better. Some people have no business owning an old car, plain and simple.


My car has 380,000 and up until recently ran as strong as the day from the Stealership. But that was improper maintenance and being really, really dumb. And on the Japanese cars, the reason people pay more to fix them is because they are usually bought with the intent to mod and I can't look at an Import without having a ton of previous work done to it, and shoddily at that. They are paying for the mistakes of others.

The people i'm talking about with the jap cars don't have modded cars or know how to mod cars so it has absolutely nothing to do with that at all. I do know others like that though, but I wasn't referring to that.
