Name a moderately priced sporty car comparable to the evo/sti that i can comfortably fit my family in and carry stuff. No seriously, name one because I’m in the market for one!
And giving individual examples of an import/domestic that was good/crappy is almost pointless. Everyone can give an example of one they’ve owned or someone they know that owned one that supports either side of the argument. You really have to look at fleet wide statistics of reliability, cost to own including maintenance costs, fuel mileage, resale value, etc, etc (and I don’t mean Consumer Reports).
