Agree with your assessment on Nissan.......
The 370 is a stunning automobile and when it comes to design, Nissan is playing the game better than anyone. As far as the engineering, the 370 weighs less, handles better, and totally on top of their game. If I have any regrets on buying my most recent car, it's that I didn't give the 370 another chance. The ride on it was just a little too rough for my liking. In hindsight, I wish I had taken another look at it, though.
Honda: The Accord Coupe is a nice looking car. I even like the looks of the sedan version. Across the board, Honda just does a lot of things right. They are a little over priced to me, but other than that, I like most everything they make. If I didn't hate front wheel drive vehicles, there would probably be at least one Honda in my driveway.
Benz: I don't even care enough about them to write anything about them.
Audi: I like Audi. I've had two in the past. They make a nice looking car and the interiors on their cars are top shelf. When you sit in an Audi, you just feel the craft and workmanship. My Audi's felt more expensive than my BMW.
Taurus/Fusion/Ford: Ford is what I am driving now. Good car and a great price. Other than Nissan, I think Ford makes the best looking "everyday Joe" car. I look at Ford's lineup and I can see why most any person can find something that they like there.
GM: GM still disgusts me, and seeing consumer reports new reliability ratings on how poorly they are doing just reinforces my disgust, but they do make the finest bang for the buck car out there.....the corvette. And I like what they've done with the camaro. I don't like the interior on it and wish that it wasn't so heavy, but other than that, it is a good looking car with some balls.
I'm still in mourning that there is no longer Pontiac. I just loved the G8...not as a sports car, but for a nice road car, with some pop, at a great price.
Hmmm.....I don't feel any particular love for any car company, but a company that I would love to buy a car from that I've never bought one from would be a subaru. I like a lot of the things I have read about their cars. I know some subaru owners who just love their cars and they say this AFTER having them for five years. I keep saying that the next car I buy will be a Subaru, but for some reason, whenver I buy, I usually just find something I like better at that time. The WRX is a car that I think I could buy and enjoy for five years.
