Afterall... I feel like driving a domestic... which is true....

I drove my 14 years old Audi afterward.... I feel like driving...

How much more time does it take for domestic to catch up……??
Domestics will likely NEVER catch up as their cost structures are all screwed up....they're stuck paying UAW peeps $40+/hour for assembly when they SHOULD be spending that money on better design and engineering as well as sourcing higher quality components.

Go sit in a Corvette....or Camaro...or Mustang...then sit in your Z (or Honda Civic, for that matter...we have 2 of those in the family too.)...the difference in build quality is GLARING....and only gets more noticeable if you actually drive the car.

x 10 I don't know if I will ever be able to spend my hard earned cash on a so called "american" vehicle after driving hondas and now a nissan...the quality is incomparable between the two....not that I judge people who do, I just can't see me doing it....what you spend your money on is your business, and mine is mine...

Shaved door handles see image 1, 2 and 5: https://www.google.com/search?um=1&h....1.cQQMLCQ1Prg It's basically taking the door handles off.

And yes, I did say that!

Lol, I'm here for the shock factor.

Not really sure how much it would all be, but a pretty penny I'm sure. It basically relocates an unlocking mechanisim to another part of the car or you can get a remote opener. Not really safe if I ever wreck the car and people need to get into it to get me out.
