Re: German car reliability

To me it has to do with German automobiles early adopting cutting-edge technology & being pressed into service before long-range reliability is built in.
Maybe I'm an apologist for German manufacturers..but I would much rather put up with the occassional glitch to get an automobile that's safe, stylish and fun to drive...and to me, that ='s Audi, BMW & Mercedes-Benz.

Let's face it...most people want a car to be as reliable as their refridgerator or stove - plug it in and forget about it.
Fine- get a Japanese car.
German cars simply demand more from the driver..and they give more back.
