Peter, while I totally agree, name one premium car company that this applies to. Mercedes used to build to a standard, and built cars that last generations. Now they are full of gizmos that might make it through your warranty period if you're lucky. If you want a car to go 200k without issues, you'd be better off buying a Camry, F150, or Miata.
