There’s no gold backing the dollar, it’s only worth something because we all believe in it.
It’s almost a return of the Austin Allegro “quartic” steering wheel. On a car with similar build quality no less! What’s old is new again...
It’s not turbo lag, that doesn’t even really exist anymore. Ford programs its truck transmissions very, very far in the direction of fuel economy, which makes them very excited about shifting up, and very reluctant to shift down.

I think the problem is not the cars themselves, but their associated fandoms.
Point out any of the actual problems that any of these cars on this list had to them, and prepare to give blood. Each of them are good cars, certainly peaks in the history of the automobile, but to hear each group of enthusiasts tell it, it’s…
So, I’m going to be “that guy’ and disagree with most of this list.
It might be my own dislike of the E39 talking - and I haven't liked it from the moment I saw it - but there really isn't anything timeless about a '90s soap bar.
