Winning the global trade game
China overtook the United States as the world's number two exporter in 2007. But who reigns supreme?
Andrew Leonard [2008-04-29]

  • German quality

    I'd much rather drive a BMW or Audi than a Toyota or Honda. German cars are in my experience a hell of a lot more fun to drive, while a Camry is for people who don't like driving.

    But if I'm paying for the repairs once the warranty's expired, give me the Toyota or Honda, because German cars break, and break expensively. Ask anyone who has a VW or Audi out of warranty. I drive an Audi now but will be buying a used Honda or Toyota when the lease runs out, because I refuse to own another German car out of warranty. Once bitten, etc.

    Friend of mine just sold his 2001 Jetta for parts after the engine blew up. Yes I know that cheaper VWs are/were made in Mexico, but they're still designed in Wolfsburg.
