I prefer a newer car with more mileage than the opposite.

It’s funny how we typically prefer the things that we grew up with, regardless of their quality or looks. I’m sure I have many examples, in my life, of things that I like that many others would think are ugly or stupid. Hell, I have an unhealthy attraction to 97-2003 Pontiac Grand Prix GTPs. My first car was a ‘97,…
What a world...What a world.
I hope they sell well, and I hope they make and sell many wagons, although I am not optimistic. Unfortunately I won’t be in the position to purchase a $30k+ car any time soon, so a few years down the used car pipeline would be the only way I buy one of these, GS wagon or not.
Taste is subjective, but I’m going to be brutally honest, and I think that an overwhelming percentage of the population will agree with me: There is not a single aspect of that car that is pretty, beautiful, sleek, or even just “good”.
I don’t think anyone on Earth has ever before called a Saturn S-series better looking than anything.
Hey, I just got a free Camry with a pre-installed camry dent! That’s a Camry dent-to-dollar ratio of infinity!
Yeah, I wonder why the 3.6 option is not available in the wagon.
But how else can it be #rugged and #offroad and #suv if it doesn’t have the black plastic????
Short term thinking in America? I simply don’t believe it!
I was hoping for a 4th Gen GT wagon, but ultimately “settled” for a 5th Gen Legacy GT, as the 4th gens were either too far away or too beat up. It wasn’t much easier to find one of those, but one popped up locally so I had to do it.
See, I would prefer bland, yet well proportioned over aggressive but random, given the choice. The Camry is just a boring car that has had a bunch of over the top styling cues added to the mix, and thus is a mess. The others, like the Legacy, Optima, Accord, etc. may be a bit boring, but the general shapes are very…
If the maintenance costs are anywhere near what people are suggesting, then save your money from the purchase price of this car and one or two years of repairs and put it towards something else. Over 2 years of ownership, a 200k mile car should not cost you $10,000.
I, too, like to over simplify segments of vehicles. For example, I don’t understand why so many people buy pickup trucks. 90% of them only end up hauling empty dip spit cans, if anything at all.
I will be honest that the current crop of sedans aren’t my favorite. They all seem to be fairly boring shapes with overly styled grilles, lights, and trim. With that said, I would place the Mazda 6, Subaru Legacy, Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata (WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD??), Kia Optima(!?), the pre-facelift malibu,…
They really need to fix the front end to make this car appealing. It simply looks poorly styled and “thrown together” and thus does not convey any sort of high quality.
That couldn’t look any more like a tacked on afterthought
I thought the Fusion was good looking when it first came out. However, I quickly started to change my mind. The car really is a boring and non-cohesive design, but with an Aston-esque grill that everyone loves. Really, the grill is the only relatively attractive part of that car, to me, at least.
Those places are the most hostile website I have ever been to.
