My dad has a 2008 Jag XK. He bought it with a souped-up CPO warranty that covered everything except consumables—clutch, tires, brakes, seals, etc.—for like 10 yrs. / 75,000 miles. One day, my stepmother was driving the car and found that a huge amount of water was leaking into the driver's side footwell, making a huge…

Totally agree. This is the pinnacle of GM's styling.

When I was 15, my dad took me to a parking lot and let me hop in the driver's seat of his Toyota pickup.

Toyota and Subaru's product planners expected that. The BRZ was never intended to outsell the Forester, which is good, because it will never move units…
