Default reliability

http://autos.msn.com/advice/CRArt.aspx?contentid=4023544

I'm curious, what exactly do you think we are paying for in the premiums we shell out for European cars? (other than styling)

only thing I can think of is "reputation" and ego-factor

Default Don't forget performance

Reliability ratings are overrated anyway. I see what most people complain about and it's pretty minor crap. Who cares if your rear-view mirror has a bubble in it, you still have two others and a neck that turn sideways!
