Fords are not luxury cars and I don't expect them to be. I have a few tiny noises in my car, and I could care less. I'd rather spend $12,000 on this car than a Kia!

for the price difference in the car makers, what do you expect? the 2 makers are not on the same level obviously... but the quality shouldnt be that bad.. i agree on that. my car makes noises... but i guess im used to them... but i honestly want to get rid of my svt frown unreliable.

I predict in 20 years, the only brands available will be today's "luxury" ones. Everyone wants a "designer label" and with all the "baby" M-B's, Lexus, BMW, Jaguars coming out, I am sure we will see "Lexus Corollas" and "M-B Lancer/Neons" soon!

We already have Jaguar Mondeos and Infiniti Sentras!

Seriously be glad you guys have a Ford. Chevys are the worst! And if you want to talk about things making noises, sit in a Pontiac...CREAK RATTLE CREAK CRACK! laugh

Like I said, Jap is good. Our Infiniti I30t did not have any problems until almost 14k miles...the interior dome light burned out. My (dad's) Contour had a problem straight off the f'n truck!

Jap cars really are made with more quality. My mom has a 99 infiniti G20 that she bought new and it has now 50k. All she had to do was the 30000 mile service. It hasn't had any problems. Before that car she had a 93 accord SE and that thing would never break. What the hell man. Why can't american cars have that quality? Oh well. I am still gonna get an american suv after the CSVT is gone. I can't buy a jap car. It just can't happen.
