I wasn't referring to patriotism. But Americans don't buy products based on their patriotism. And the Germans were wayyyyyyyy ahead of the Japanese. The Japanese auto industry didn't really develop until the 50s. After WWII they primarily built 3 wheelers. If you want I can give you the history of who taught them.

And absolutely no disrespect taken. I enjoy this topic very much and trying to add another perspective to it
