Of all the funny things said so far in this thread (and there have been some good ones) relying on a internet forum to make your car buying decision over the "biased" data collecting of Consumer Reports is high on the list!!
Have a read.

Statistical problems of Consumer Reports auto ratings

and I never said to base a purchase from an internet forum. If had done that I wouldn't own a 2003 Boxster because of all the IMSB failure posts around here, when it's probably a 2% issue in these cars?
