Is that to say that European or Australian driving conditions take advantage of the handling prowess of these cars? I can play devil's advocate and see what you're saying Mr. Bertka, but it's all merely opinion. No matter how much you try to back up your opinions with statistics, they are still just educated guesses and no real data can come from them. And the thought that this comes from an advertising businessman is laughable. You yourself should know that more than one factor goes into a consumer's buying decision. Therefor more than one factor goes into the products that are being made to fit those aforementioned consumer's needs!

"@#$*&$! German cars!"
