Hahaha... so much hate on this forum when anything negative gets said about the 86... People on this forum remind of "Apple people". Too blinded by "perfection" to admit flaws, and this car (and the iPhone btw) has its share of flaws.
Consumer Reports is spot on. I would not recommend this car to the average consumer. I love it but I love it because I am willing to deal with its flaws as a compromise to everything else it gives me. The average consumer (i.e. people reading consumer reports) shouldn't buy this car.
I say good job to Consumer Reports for not getting too caught up in the 86-Fad and giving an honest review.
Consumer reports relies on feedback from consumers. So when they send out surveys and 75% of the people that have this car have taken it in for warranty work 3-4 times over the last year, it becomes an unreliable car.
P.S. Consumer reports are not allowed to accept money or products from the companies that they are reviewing. When they review 10 different dishwashers, they buy all 10 dishwashers at full price so that their reviews are only biased by the people reviewing them. How many other journalist outlets can claim that?
