Then those people might as well light their money on fire. You can find plenty of Ninja 250s, GS500s, CBR250R, SV650, VFRs, etc. in great condition at that price. Best part is you can sell it back for what you paid for in most cases.

Why would you buy this when you can find something infinitely better used?

It means nothing in reality. Reliability especially of new models and products launches has no correlation to cars produced a year or two later.

Looking at the Fiat 500 for example, the frequency of problems following its launch in the US decreases with each successive year. Even then most of the problems listed were…

What facts?

These facts?

JD Power has entirely different rankings for the same vehicles sold abroad and here, I would argue that the JD Power survey data in the US are plagued with strong confirmation bias that have little resemblance to reality. I’m sorry but one’s inability to operate an infotainment system is not a ‘reliability’ problem.

FCA…

Poorly coded ECUs? lol as if you have had access to look at the source code of a Jeep vehicle. All modern Jeeps have good to excellent safety ratings from the IIHS and NCAP so I’m not sure what you’re on about... as for everything else, it sounds like you’re complaining about the Jeeps of yesteryear which have no…

Do you understand that the USA is but one of 5 major automotive markets on this planet?

People continue to incorrectly forecast FCA prospects year after year after year...when will everyone give it a rest and perhaps recognize that Marchionne and to larger extent Exor knows what its doing? 

Everyone forgets that FCA is a GLOBAL company that exists beyond the borders of Trump-loving morons. Jeep and FIAT…

How are they not very good vehicles?

If you say ‘reliability’ and pull up the JD Power rankings and/or cite the Crapsumer Reports article, your clearly a sheep that doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

Circling the drain yet eliminating debt and increasing profits...??? your argument makes no sense. Also for someone being an industry insider, you must have missed the memo on their release of direct injection engines and mild-hybridization of all products.

You sound like another blind FCA hater that has no idea what…

Fat bob isn’t bad, but will it still sound like ass?

Don’t forget the version with a “bit too much hair and an ill-fitting jacket”:

Children, pay attention, this is how you engineer the future.

Ignore the FCA haters of Teslapnik. They’re most pimply-faced teenagers that are more bothered the screen size of their phone than driving. They couldn’t tell you what a car is even if it ran them over.

Brilliant looking car, this one should fair better than the California. I would easily take this over any 911.

and the Alfa Romeo hate train keeps rolling on... *yawn*

The depreciation hit will be no worse than other cars in this segment. Look at what a few year old AMG costs and tell me I’m wrong, I’ll wait.

This is a stupid idea.

Except microwaved macaroni and cheese. That doesn’t take much time at all.
