    Holy shit that is so spot on.

    Same for BMW and Mercedes. They went from expensive aspirational cars to lease and dump specials.

      I grew up with VW cars from the 1980s and '90s. I miss their quality and simplicity. If anything broke on them, you could often fix it yourself with a relatively limited mechanical skillset and toolbox.

      Yes, the other German manufacturers went the same route.
