The big difference is the Asian companies seem to take a lot more pride in the success of thier companies not thier stock. Not sure what India's business practices will be yet.

For another $5k you can have the new twin turbo 335i
from BMW. I bought my daughter one for college graduation and it drives like it's on rails.





Car and Driver voted it the best engine and handling of any car in it's class for 2008.

Don't get me wrong, this is the only non American car I've ever bought and the reason I bought it wasn't because GM makes crappy cars however, GM doesn't make car comparable to this and if they did it would cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $50k

I got hers out the door (inc tax lic, fully loaded) for $42k. 20 mpg city and 28 Hwy

Why can't GM make cars with comparable quality with a comparable price? The equivelent car is a Cadallic and it runs around $52k
