Currently living in Germany. It's a little funny what us Americans assume 'Germans' drive. Remember, the German manufacturers are only a status symbol in the place they aren't common. I live in Stuttgart, there's a dozen Mercedes on my block, and a few less Porsches. That's because this is their city of manufacture. Driving around Bavaria for fun or hockey, etc...same story with BMW. Truth is, most Germans outside the manufacture cities can't afford the big dog "luxury." A-coupes, lupos, polos, 1-series A3s, etc everywhere.

Know what the Germans buy to show off? Classic American muscle. Perspective. Worried, nah, no developed distribution here and Chevy outsells by volume, so there's no competition regardless.
