I gotta say I agree with you. I have always been in love with American cars, my family has always owned them. My first car was a Camaro and my second a Trans Am. They were really fun cars to drive, however not reliable or practical in any way at all. My girlfriend just bought a 2010 Acura TSX and her father just bought a c6 Corvette. The C6 has already been in the shop twice, once because of the traction control broke and another because a spark plug wire came loose. Not big repairs and covered under warranty, but wtf? This is a $50k car. On top of that, the removable top makes the most annoying creaking and groaning. There is no fix for it. Meanwhile the TSX was only $33k, and it starts up and does exactly what it should every single time. I'm not even going to get into the fact that my 06 Silverado has cost me almost $5,000 in stupid bull **** repairs since I've bought it, and I'm still making payments on the peice of ****. I already know I'm not buying another GM truck, and as much as I hate Toyota, I'm beginning to wonder if the Tundra would be as worry free as the TSX.
