Bitchy? No, that would be you and your mis-guided notion of what a loaner car must mean. I was happy to enlighten you.



As I stated many posts before, name a maker without issues. :hello:



Had I listened to a keyboard test driver like you I would not have purchased a number of cars Ive owned and enjoyed.


Initial quality is a retarded metric when you're looking at reliability. They obviously know that, because they have a different study for long term reliability. You haven't enlightened anyone about anything except your need to play Captain Save-A-Ho when the honor of your precious German cars has been besmirched. Keep at it. It is a fact that the reliability of European cars is below that of the Japanese. That's all I said. I'm sorry if you have a problem with that. I'm glad you've enjoyed your German cars. That's fantastic. It's also irrelevant.

There's a couple in the parking garage here. They sound glorious. Reliability be damned, the Italians know how to build an engine that sounds amazing.

Haboob 02-07-2014 07:06 AM

Right? Even this TT V6 sounds retardedly good.

Make my Z sound like garbage, but so does the GTR.

DEpointfive0 02-07-2014 07:07 AM

I told my brother to buy one... He see's no reason to... He'll stick with the ISF... Until I take it from him... That bastard... Lol

Since when does the GTR sound good? Stock all you hear is induction noise. It sounds like the world's fastest Dyson.

DE, take the ISF now so he's forced to buy the Maserati. That way you get to drive it, but you don't have to maintain it. JD Power initial quality be damned, I'll bet it doesn't hold up for ****. A new entry level model from the Italians? What could possibly go wrong?

Ugh, I forgot to record my buddies GTR. This weekend I will.

I think it sounds great.

Chuck33079 02-07-2014 07:15 AM

No.

Chuck33079 02-07-2014 07:22 AM

That would explain it. Stock it sounds like a vacuum.
