But for everyday use and economical, environmental friendly.. they are the worst. I used to live in a country that drive on the left, so most are American cars and oh boy.. one car can tow an elephant easy. Go the market, i need 2 car parks. The only reliable are Japanese-American made car like Lexus or Honda.
I'm not hating, this is the truth. I've driven in 3 countries i've seen many cars and I have own more than one car.
European = Quality, not simplicity, pricey.
Japanese = Best of both world really, with extra $ you get Quality if not, you get simplicity, economy and affordability
American = Cool, Iconic Muscle cars.
qft.
As for economy, it all depends on how you drive. Heck, you can get 19 MPG in a Prius if you tried. If i'm slow on the throttle with my car, I can usually rack up to 30 mpg's highway and 20 city. It isn't near civic territory, but it is respectable.

I mean just look at Mercedes or BMW, those cars are just brilliant!
New ones, yes. I especially adore the DB9 from Aston Martin.. But such companies as TVR ruin the British name in the automotive industry. Actually the only good British car company I can currently think of off the top of my head is Aston Martin..
