Drivers of japanese cars, will you top up a bit and upgrade to conti?

Conti cars are well known for their tough chasis.
In a collision, jpn tin cans cannot hope to match the superior "armour" of a conti.
Not only chassis, some using high grade aluminium for exterior. If U ever have the chance, try press the doors/bonnet of Japan cars vs Merc. See how the material flex under pressure.

You only need to slam the doors.

Contis make a heavy thump. Nippon cars go piang!

No, the road tax and maintenence cost more probably insurance also. Monthly installment can afford but all these expenses if can minimise will minimise.

Jap cars are like tin cars. My wife got into an accident with a bike, damage so bad.

Few months later I changed to conti.

Safety > money.

If it’s an ‘entry level’ conti versus a ‘premium’ Jap, I’ll go for the latter.

E.g. Mercedes GLB 200 versus Lexus NX 350

I’ll definitely go for the Lexus. Superior in all aspects. From performance, handling, to interior.
