Solstice/Sky but those are a different segment. The reason you can't think of any is because the market for them disappeared after the 240/Silvia bit the big one. It's refreshing to see a car company take a chance like this.

And Tim, take anything Mike says with a metric fuck ton of salt or just ignore it all together. All his opinions are the sheer definition of anecdotal. A good example of a normal human being able to not be narrow minded is my first Mitsubishi. The day I bought it a significant short at the fuse box completely melted it and a good portion of the wiring harness. The car had electrical gremlins since then. OMFG MITSUBISHI SUCKS SO MUCH ASS THIS IS GARBAGE. Why do I want another one despite my 2GNT? Shit happens and I enjoy the niche vehicles that Mitsu has brought to the table. Or the guy in our local "club" that's a heavy line tech for Dodge. He rants about hating working on DCX vehicles but at the end of the day he can't fault them and his entire family drives them. (I should note that the Caliber IS built like shit. Don't buy one.)

Hyundai's build quality has improved leaps and bounds since their first introduction into the North American market AND keeping prices competitive. Period. The only problem they have is shaking a stigmata that people like Mike pointlessly perpetuate. The same reason the baby boomers still call anything imported "rice burners".

I guess that brings to light a new topic: What is the most reliable car you've owned? Include a list of all previous vehicles owned.

Most reliable vehicles owned (look past your love for the car):

(Tie for me)
88 Isuzu 4x4 P'up
03 Dodge SRT-4

Vehicles I've owned:

88 Isuzu 4x4 P'up (sold with over 300k on the ticker 7 years ago. I still see it driving around.)
03 Dodge SRT-4 (I beat the snot out of this car and it's NEVER given me grief.)
71 Super Beetle (that thing never ran right)
46/47 CJ2A (It's a project, it's supposed to not work 90% of the time )
96 Integra (holy Christ bad memories. Aren't Honda's supposed to be reliable?)
99 2GNT (fairly reliable minus the electrical fire)
86 Subaru GL-10 Turbo. (This car was a rolling mistake. Fun though.)
91 TSi AWD. (Driggs once said that DSM's are the sum of their owners. It's obvious this car's previous owners couldn't add.)

Mike, you're a cool guy but seriously lighten up.
