Perhaps 3-4 years from now I may be bored out of my mind with a Japanese product and require abuse again. Only time will tell......

+1. I'm burned out on German car nonsense, this last round (trans, suspension, misc. crap) really beat me up- had the car for 1.5 years and everything except the engine itself has been gone thru- it's like a NEW car now. My E39 fought me tooth-and-nail but, after many dollars, I finally won. If it goes TU then it's adios Germany for awhile. All the new German stuff just isn't appealing, not to mention the horrid build quality of the last few years.
My next transportation appliance is likely Japanese... Lexus.
