In addition to your comments Lexus vs German Cars, there are a couple of things working against the Germans:-


  1. The Euro is high against the Dollar so a good chunck of your money will be "gone" in the exchange rate shuffle.


  1. The Germans have a long way to go to catch up to Japanese robot technology.Germans are still selling tolerances of a



1000th of an inch, where as Lexus is down to 1,000,000 of an inch!!!

I have worked all over the world including Japan. Let's face facts, when it comes to engineering Jappan is #1, and in Japan Lexus is #1.
