Actually...
1. The topic is STYLING

2. Only a fool buys on CR reliability ratings. Unless he leverages them to get good deals on a low rated vehicle or mfr product.
Like me on my TBird and Bravada.
Dont believe me? If you have subscribed for 40 years watch the rolling ratings for any specific year model of Audi. Or VW.
CR readers LIE!

I noticed that during the 80 and 90's Ford was ranked avg to just below on electrical problems.
Bull****!
