As an offroader in Colorado, the #1 reason why the Jeep Liberty sucks is the “Jeep” badge. To most people, “Jeep” means “offroad vehicle” so when you see one of these on the trails in Colorado you simultaneously realize:

6-1 high 200's and it’s a tight fit for me too.

Buying any “luxury sport sedan” new means high depreciation costs.

She knows the reason why, she just doesn’t want to tell you.

You live in the wrong place.

That being said, I think Convertibles will recover quickly. The reason being that a lot of home owners will charge their EV in the garage, which makes convertibles very doable in EV world.

Andy, you should thank whoever saved you from that Suzuka blue on blue interior car. Laguna blue is much better. Blue overload:

I appreciate that a car enthusiast is running Toyota, but Toyoda really needs to stop interfering with his designers. He has horrible taste and Toyotas’ styling have gone from bland to horrifying under him.

Miata: depreciating.
C6 Corvette: depreciating.
SLK55 AMG: dear god my checkbook to keep it running.

Maybe it adds up in scale; I’m sure it does, most things do. It doesn’t…

It’s the kind of compromise a struggling or small company might resort to.

Toyota doesn’t “make” the Mk5 Supra, so it doesn’t belong on this list.

The initial Chevy Volt was announced as having a gas generator driving an electric motor. This was thrilling as a concept, because it meant that switching the vehicle between markets / fuel types became a trivial swap to a new generator type. Natural Gas fleet? Diesel in more remote areas of the world? Swap the…

“So here it goes. This is one of the best modern cars I’ve ever driven.”

AutoTrader and CarGurus both have 4 nationally in the mid $60's, none with a ton of miles (50-60K). Maybe 2-3 more years?

Are you factoring in running costs?

That being said, I STILL wish it was an all-Toyota car.
