Five trips to the dealership, combined with Nissan USA, has convinced me never to buy another, based solely upon their solutions and service. Aside from this (Mrs. Lincoln) it is a fun car.
Every company makes a lemon. I found that out myself. My X gf will no-longer own a ford (Has an engineering degree and works in that field, FWIW), based on her problems/experience with Ford at the corporate level.

I am VERY leery of GM due to my 2001 WS6 being a total POS.

My Infiniti is now having suspension issues.

My friend's Integra with just a fart-can on it was almost always dead in the driveway.

The only vehicles I had good luck with? Ford. Everything else breaks, and is expensive to fix. Ford made stuff right (except those 4-speed autos. Those were a pile, and the non SHO Taurus.)

However, Ford doesn't make anything I want, and now the GT500 crowd has a TON of issues with them.

End opinion? I will buy what I want and hope for the best. However, when Hyundai puts their nearly 430bhp V8 in the Genesis Coupe, I will be VERY interested to see what the base 'vette, 370Z,mustang GT, etc. crowd have to say...
