I still like the way VW and german cars feel and I probably will stay with a German engineered car.
I also have a 26 year old Classic Mercedes (Germany) and it starts every time I turn the key. All the parts, windows, locks, clock, etc. work perfectly.
I can't agree with you more, your point about globalization etc...

My close friend had a 1970's Mercedes and its still going strong... excellent points
