it seems like people do not know Daihatsu is fully owned by Toyota, well by Japanese standards, which means Toyota owns 51%.

look what the koreans did in twenty years? The original hyundai excel was a piece of garbage, and now they are making cars that are actually desirable.

The Chinese car makers have a gigantic advantage since they can steal all the plans and info from non-chinese brands that choose to do business in china.

And while the qc is probably horrific, if you price a car 3 or 4 grand below the least expensive car in a market, they will sell. Just look at Yugo.

Oh, and people don't want air bags, abs, or nannies. They are all required by law. Air bags are not safe. They do prevent deaths, and that is proven, yet they also cause horrific injury to anyone who isn't the perfect 6'2" and 180 lbs. This cannot be disputed.

If you believe we live in a free society, people should be allowed to choose for themselves if they want an airbag or not. The crash stats are easy to find. People can choose for themselves whether having an explosive device that could save their lives, or injure them horribly is a good idea or not.
