There is no real answer to your question as it would depend on the model you buy. The overall reliability of the cars today, by most experts list the Japanese first, followed by American and the German manufactures last. The gap between 1st & 3rd is very narrow. But that can be deceiving as within certain models that may not be true. For instance, the Japanese manufacture Suzuki does not have a great reliability record, but Toyota does. And the German manufacture Mercedes has an excellent reliability record but VW does not. Each country builds great cars and some not so great cars. And it may change from year to year. Consumers Reports and similar publications will provide you with detailed list of each model and their reliability. And lastly is the fact that almost any car today will last a long time if it is taken care of, and regularly scheduled maintenance is performed per the owners manual. And almost any car will have problems if that maintenance is ignored.
Because houses last, and keep their value longer than cars.
maybe
drive more cars
Normally they last the life of the engine or longer. No real guarantee.
so retailers can tell you the car will last 20 years longer than it will
They don't. Diesels get better mileage and last longer.
Unknown, but probably not. The battery will probably die first and it is expensive to replace.
Toyota is a company both founded and based in Japan. Therefore, all of their cars are technically Japanese. Toyota has headquarters in several countries through which they make and distribute cars, but they were originally a Japanese company and the founder's last name was Toyota, giving them their name.
Normally Euopean products last longer than American because Americans contruct within less money to make the prodect and quick sale Normally Euopean products last longer than American because Americans contruct within less money to make the prodect and quick sale
It is true that HONDA cars last longer but for me, I stick with USA made cars because I think that USA power rocks!!!
Unfortunately I have to say, many foreign cars are built better and last longer and are trouble free.
