    You know its bad when the cheapest model of i10 has ~15% more HP (65HP) and is 4 seconds faster to 60mph :p
    You can even fit 4 adults in an i10 without much difficulty.

    Weeeeelll I'll take back the bland interiors. American cars are famous for terrible interiors.
    But they are rather uninspired in the exterior styling department.

    I mean..they're so mediocre.
    They aren't ugly, but they're not special...bland.
    You do a bit better with sedans, though.

    The fascias match up with the car better.
    And European design seems to be improving lately.

    Ok, so i am getting this straight right. You claim European cars are bland. Then give images of 2 x American, 1 x Australian and 1 x Japanese cars? Leaving the fiat panda as the only European one.
    Then again im no better, i gave a Korean one :p
    Here is a Renault Clio to make up for it: <-- Words that will never be said ever again

    I'm just giving examples of cars that are sold in and commonly seen in Europe.
    I'll try my best and find a competent American car :p
    I'm not a huge fan of chevy, but these new Impalas are pretty spiffy.

    Yeah but that all depends on price range.
    At the same price range as a clio you can get a chevy spark

    While style is a personal thing i gotta say i find it to be pretty ugly on the outside and okish on the inside.

    You are correct, the outside of that car looks like dogshit. Interior is okay.
    My opinion is: if you want a big car, go american, you want a small car, go Japanese.

    That is fucking wonderful, no really, you have excelled in providing a car image I can find some enjoyment in rather than wondering why people voluntarily lose their balls.

    And by small car I mean anything that isn't a truck or large suv.
    Pretty much anyone besides ford, GM, and Chrysler make decent small(ish) cars. American car companies really don't do too good of a job making big cars either lol.

    I kinda like to make german cars their own group.
    There are:
    American
    European
    German
    Korean
    Japanese
    Chinese
    Russian-I can't lie, I'm kinda a fan of old soviet cars.
    I'm sure there are more, but those are the major markets.

    In terms of seating those aren't really suvs (the average sedan will fit 5 easily) the average american full size suv will fit 7+ and have power for towing as well as plenty of space for luggage, for example the ford expedition, and the chevy suburban, both have seating for 7 or 8 depending on middle row configuration, while still having plenty of power for towing, and space for luggage as well (if you need more space in expedition, you can go for the EL model) not really much you can do for 7+ seating in a range rover or that maraudr (I think thats what that is anyway)

    Obviously get what you need though, not what you dont need (unlike the stereotypical american)

    For example, my family owns a 2003 ford expedition because it met our needs of 8 seats(8 of us) and was affordable at the time of purchase

    There will always be exceptions.
    There will be some good european suv's, and some nice american compact cars, etc. I'm just making some generalizations here.

    And just to get us a bit back on topic:
    Yesterday I almost launched a longboard under a moving suv.
