Thanks so far.

Most of them i did know already, but there are some surprises in there.
The Acura-thing i didn't know, cause it's an only-american thing.
Lexus is known here, too, although it's not very common.
Infiniti is also unknown to me...

I think, the market for high-priced japanese cars is too small in europe.
Noone would buy a japanese in the same price-range as an Audi, BMW or Mercedes. Even VW has problems to sell their Phaeton, cause it's a VW.

cheers, Thomas
