[net.auto] What new cars to buy?

   As a good rule of thumb, don't buy American if you want to
   avoid sloppy quality and breakdown hassles.  This includes
   "foreign" cars made in America (Rabbit, Accord, etc.).  It 
   seems that anything the American automobile labor/management 
   mentality gets its hands on turns to shit.  Case in point:
   The U.S.-made Honda Accord has 21% more warranty problems
   than the identical car made in Japan for the American market.
   And everyone knows what happened to VW after they started
   making cars in this country.  Yup, quality went down; prices
   went up.
