Model building in Japan = Gentleman's hobby and diversion for the rich.
Model building in USA = kids' toys. (and big kids' toys, too! )

That's why the Japanese makers invest so much in fidelity and accuracy, and American makers invest in extra features. Generally speaking, that is...

Model building in Europe = Anyone know?

I think there are a lot of good American modellers, probably just not in the area of import car models

I've seen a lot of beautifully built military models (tanks, planes, ships) that are as lovely as Japanese modellers' built ones. There's also some market for diecast cars (1/18 scales) that I think is preferred by a lot of adult car collectors (I used to be one myself).

Not all model building in the States is associated with kids / young adults. Just mecha (thanks to the gundam crazed kids ) and maybe import cars?

I'll shut up noww...
