Anyone can make a car go fast mate....but making it go fast, able to go around corners, not feel like it was made out of yogurt tops by a 4 year old......only the Europeans can do that. The Yanks can't.

When the yanks want to make a fast car, they send it elsewhere to sort the rest, always have always will IMO.
BUT they have got loads better with more normal cars of late, handling wise so they are catching up.

Your joking right? the average american car is an utter poo box imo. Yeah of course some nice ones. But the most of general boxes are shit.
