Leaf springs vs coils mate.

MINT!

I have an American/Australian muscle car, sort of it's a Chevy Lumina SS 5.7 Litre V8 or Holden Commodore VY and if I was to review it, I would say total crap! The build quality is the problem and the electrics are shocking. Only American car I like at the moment is the new 6.1L Camaro but no doubt that is made of chocolate too! Gearbox is utter rubbish!

Everyone complains about everyone elses build quality.

American cars are heavy, plasticky and uncomfortable

German cars are ungodly expensive to maintain (here)

British cars too

Asian cars feel small, cheap, and usually underpowered

but they all have good qualities too

American cars are easy to mod and get BIG power.

German/british cars are very comfortable and balanced

Asian cars are nimble and very maneuverable.

You take the good with the bad.

Hell, if we would all stop fighting and make a car with an American drivetrain, European body/frame, and Asian suspension, It'd Probably be unstoppable.

Give the American engine to the Japanese and let them extract all the power. Let the Japs do the electrics as well. Then give that to the Germans to build the rest.

The French and the Italians can watch!

[charger69]

the italians could design it

[SLEEPER]

they could as long as they are not allowed to build it.
