Time was Mercedes-Benz (and other german cars) were a by-word for absolute quality and customer care but it isnt anymore. Japanese cars like the Honda are off better quality than more expensive Euro cars.
yeah..kung reliability ang pag uusapan euro, pero pag concern ka sa cost of ownership, japanese na ksi madami replacement parts for japanese cars. unlike germans, wala ka iba choice but to use the orig. pero how long a replacement parts will last?
i'd bet on japanese. of late (actually, since the mid-90's), mercedes-benz cars have been reported to be unreliable, and BMWs, volkswagens, opels, land rovers, jaguars, etc. are reportedly fussier than the japanese marques.
Para sakin it depends on the country where you stay in.
Of course, if you're somewhere in Europe, the best thing to buy is a European car, because kahit ano talaga gawin mo, talagang lamang ang percentage na based para sa lugar nila ang cars na ginagawa nila, at syempre, dun mura ang parts para sa models nila, at kung ano ano pang related sa car na un. We could say that there are a lot of differences sa conditions sa Europe compared sa Asia, such as climate, roads, and other things.
On the other hand, kung nasa Asia ka, mas practical bumili ng Japanese car. Lalo na dito, mas sanay tayo sa Jap cars. Nagkataon lang talaga siguro na talagang mas tama sa pamumuhay ng Pinoy ang mga Jap cars.
sana wala akong nakikitang mga Jap cars na pinapagawa... sira ang aircon, oil seal, water pump, radiator, power lock, shock absorber, tie-rod, ECU, etc. mukhang overhyped lang naman yang Toyota / Honda reliability na yan.
punta lang kayo sa [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], eh puro jap cars ang may concern jan.
