German cars VS American cars

This thread has been made for confronting German car against American cars.
The rules:

1-You must compare cars from the same categories (ex: Mercedes E-Class can't be confronted to a Chevy Cavalier, but a Cadillac Seville)

2- When you confront cars you must create a post with pictures of the both cars and you must create a poll ex: (which one do you like BMW 3-series or Cadillac CTS)

3- A SUV must be confronted to another SUV (ex: BMW X5 VS Cadillac Escalade)

4- American cars = all the brand mark that an American group holds (Ex: Ford owns Jaguar so Jaguar is considered as an American car (it's just for the game))
Idem for German cars

Áll the cars you are talking about are the worsest car in the world. May be they are comfortable for some time but when they start to give problem, they will not leave you until you put them into garbage.

So i think Japanese cars are the best and best for ever!!! No Option!!!

in dark blue. That is a beautiful car. Much better than a big old Buick. Remember, those Buick Elektras from the 1970s. They must have been 25 feet long.

 I love to put my hands on a 55 Buick park in from of ac\Delco in Air port road, the first one that came all electric, still holding itself as an original.  A little restoration to redo the chrome and correct the little rust spots and I 'll bet I will make a fortune in the US as one collectible car.    The Red Pope of Qatar LivingBut as Muhammad Ali once said, 'It's not bragging, if you can back it up'."

Yes I know that they are cr*p cars. But the Shelby Mustangs of the late 60s were truly beautiful. Today, they command a fortune.

are generally of poor finish and don't handle anything like as well as European cars but they are tough (especially the big Fords) and they are very cheap. Good value for money.

 

German cars have excellent build quality and amazing engineering but they are expensive.

 

Here in Doha I have a big American car because the roads are poor, full of potholes and speed bumps. If I lived in the US or Europe I would drive a BMW, Merc or Porsche.

 Our current American cars are competitive as the European cars.Why? Know we build BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, Rovers etc in America.  That makes them American Cars, not Europeans.   Is that is why you shipped that Ford Pinto to Doha, because you wanted to be close to those wild Mustangs since you could not afford to buy one....

I will be the first to say our cars don't hold a candle to the German ones.  I know..owned several of both...

 

German cars are much more comfortable, last longer, don't need repairs the day after you purchase them and are safer in crash tests.
