That's strange because I would take a Porsche or Audi over a Nissan any day of the week.

What's stranger is that most real-world human beings can't affort the double-the-price...

I would definitely take a Lamborghini Murcielago over a Honda Civic. Any day.

Those are enthusiast cars, not transportation.

CR is all about pedestrian functionality, economy, safety and reliability.

What's sad is that Detroit's consumer staple sedans, SUVs and minivans didn't fare better.

We just bought the Honda Odyssey with all the frills, and we LOVE it.

Big 6 cylinder, that automatically goes down to 3 (economy) when you're maintaining a steady speed.

Also, my brother just bought the Toyota Highlander Hybrid, (SUV) and likes it very much. But it's nowhere near as comfortable as my minivan.

And pay the comensurate increase in insurance and maintenance fees. I know who a guy who bought a Porsche in a momement of insanity and sold it 9 mos later to get the Nissan he should have purchased in the first place.

Takes a bit more of this for a Porsche or Audi:

You must never have had to repair one.
