Every car make has its own gems out there, but for example I personally dont have the money to buy a gt, i would only afford a crappy escort, which my neighbor owned, and called me every other day to go pick him up... i had an 83 Gti and it was more reliable than it but it depends on condition, use and all that stuff.

No it all depends on the owner(S) if a car is taken care of the right way it will last as long as you want it to. if you beat the **** out of it and dont do maintenace you deserve what you get. I had a 00GS eclipse I beat the snot out of and it was broke every week. And alway major parts broken, I didnt care I would just pay fix it and beat it some more till I had to dump another $1k or more into all over again. The end of 2.5 years I racked up a $8100 bill in aftermarket and repairs after all that it was still worthless

Yeah exactly thats my point haha, so i dont find it amuzing to just talk **** about some freaking car makes, because in the end, like they say, the object reflects the image of its owner haha, btw good thing you had the money, i cant even afford the oil right now... stupid school[:@] oh well... itll all pay back later

it's a little of both, I personally think any make or modelcan break constant, it's not really the company that should be held responsible.... I mean if someone bought a TSI talon and pushed 25PSI on a stock block, turbo and crank..... when the car blows up I'm not gonna say Eagle isn't a reliable company... Imma say that guy was an idiot...anycar, if tuned and modded correctly, and is taken care of, won't die or break... I bought my yellow stang with 50 miles on it, modded it as soon as I got it, put 60K on it, and the only time I was in the shop is to change the drag radials and an oil change every 3,000

That could be an easy example morbid, but im talking more about the general maintenance of the car... for example, i bet when you started driving, you werent so happy at first with the car you had, and then you got the hang of it.... my gti got me walking MILES back home.... but i loved it, and later it looked LIKE CRAP, but it was more reliable than a nice out of the box car.... btw, nice to see another fan of dir en grey and MM
