Suggesting that American cars are more shoddy than British cars is preposterous.

Listen buddy, America makes the worst cars outside of Russia and I won't let you slander our decades of industrial cannibalism by pretending otherwise. Our corporate overlords have stolen too much value to be looked down on like this.

Yeah, when I think quality, I think of Dodge, not Rolls-Royce.

Chrysler isn't American anymore. Landrover's most reliable years were when they were owned by Ford.

I don't think that anyone ever accused Rolls Royce of being good, just expensive.
