Expensive cars have expensive parts and material, no surprise there. As for German cars versus Japanese cars cost of repair, shipping plays a big part of cost I'm sure.

How is shipping from Japan different than Germany? Plus most parts are subletted out anyhow and come from other locations.

Euro $ exchange rate...the reason why only Europen in the list.. from 2001 till today the $ lost over 50% in worth to the Euro.. you realy wonder why repairs are more expansive?
