Good question, but people do.
There are tons of EVERYTHING with well over 200k. Doesn't mean they weren't miserable bastards their whole life.
I'd call that user error above anything else. Why would he not have used the Lemon Law? That's certainly a very extreme case.
Yup, still making them, and a great example of horsepower fixing a lot of things. My biggest gripe with the 2010-2012 cars was the lack of power. The 2.0T car went from 210 to 274hp, and the 3.8 cars from 300 to 348.
Can you believe that?!?!?!?!
*Damn near. 18psi, in reality. I've seen 18psi pretty consistently using the Torque app. The factory boost "gauge" only goes to 15psi, and is easily buried.
While I do really like the Toyobaru twins, the GC I felt is a better all around, more practical car. It's not as sharp as the Toyobaru, but the difference in power is VERY apparent, especially from a highway roll. The Toyobaru interior also felt very cheap (that center stack, ugh!!) and very small, and while the GC is…
Unfortunately, head gasket failure has been an issue on all Subaru boxers for a long time. I had a 2005 Forester XT and a 2005 Legacy GT, and both model forums were full of horror stories. My XT was fully STI swapped and then some, and I never had a problem with it. My GT only had a Cobb tune, but never had a problem…
Which can be said for the WRX, the FR-S, the Focus and Fiesta ST. Just a Google search away. This stuff happens.
As Automatch Tom said, different strokes. The Z is ultimately quicker and a better car, but typically priced higher, and is arguably more problematic. Having owned my 2013 2.0T for over a year now, it's like driving a Ferrari in that it turns heads and I get a lot of questions about it. It's been problem free, but it…
The manual has been sketchy since it was first introduced, but it seems that the problematic ones start having issues pretty early, so if you test drive a used one and the trans feels OK, it probably is.
Definitely find a 2013 2.0T for bang/buck if you can, because MOAR POWAR.

WTF is he wearing and OMG that haircut.
$6500 is not too much to be truly unique. You're not likely to see another on on the road. But in this case, you could have a horn growing out of your head and be better off.
For serious though, I would LOVE to see an affordable, direct competitor to the Wrangler. I love a Wrangler, but I do not love the JK's shit quality.
