All the best and worst shit you own is made in China. If you don't want cheap shit don't buy cheap shit, but these cars are really nice and inexpensive.

These cars are in tons of countries outside of China and they are very well received.

I agree with you. China is manufacturing cheap products because that's what (a lot of) consumers want as well. They also make expensive quality products, too. I have friends who like to rag on Made In China products but they love the quality of their iPhones which are just Designed in California.

What do you do when you need something fixed? Can parts be had?

You can order them and then have a mechanic fix it for you. It's the same way in America.
