Different tools for different jobs. If I lived in germany, Id pick a german car that was designed for high speed cruising (i.e. highway gearing) rather than acceleration. If I lived in Japan, or any other country that has taxes based on displacement, Id want a high revving, small displacement car that wrung out every bit of hp/litre. However, I live in North America where gas is still relatively cheap, no limits on displacement, wide open highways etc. The imports I can afford are not tailored for the things I like to do with my cars and the ones that are suitable are out of my price range. So its domestic for me.
