As to the quality of a Polish built car, those guys built some of the best fighter and fighter-bomber aircraft in history. Anybody who can make an aircraft that can get up to and hold up under speeds greater than Mach 2, shouldn't have any problem building a car that goes less than 200mph!
Have you ever seen a Mig (or any Soviet built aircraft) in person? I flew helicopters in the military and had a chance to get up close to some stuff captured in the Soviet / Afghan war, and the stuff is crap. It looks like they do a good job building cars but the Migs I have seen were very crude compared to western technology.
