however, if im not mistaken, honda has slipped a bit in their "ultra reliable" reputation...
i think that nissan is doing a good job of making some sportier vehicles, but im still not a huge fan of their mid level cars, and unfortunately, the GTR is priced out of reach of most people. the idea is for it to compete in the muscle car market, which it doesnt performance wise, but the price tag puts it into the supercar class.
I believe that was actually Toyota as they have been having transmission and engine problems with some of their newer models, but if you have any evidence of that, please share it. I would love to hear that so then I can give my friends who drive Hondas a hard time. I know that they have had transmission issues throughout the years, though they do a good job of shutting up the press about the transmission problems they have since you always hear the magazines take a jab at Chrysler and never take a jab at Honda.
1971Chall, you are sounding so much like myself, it is beginning to scare me. What you said is why I have trouble trusting CR, I also have had trouble trusting them on the basis that they never report commonly known problems in their reliability comparisons that people have had with Toyota like the oil sludge problems that effected most of their product line from 97-02.
Some outlets do consider this to be a supercar; therefore, it can be compared to the 911, plus the Corvette isn't a supercar but a sports car and gets compared to the 911 all the time. The Viper is considered to be a supercar and it only costs around $87K. This car is very impressive overall, I just hope it is able to hold itself together with all that stress.
MrKrisSullivan, actually the Ford GT was around $150K, although you are correct that many sold them for $250K, the issue is that many other supercars and sports cars have the priced raised significantly so in fairness when comparing you have to stick with what they are supposed to be charging for the car and not the price hike.
