There is primary one reason I own it, and it mirrors what you said.
Nothing else new and cheap on the market right now. It's like we are in transition period. Drove the Genesis 2.0R the 3.8L, the Mustang V6, 370z, MX5, Elise, G37s. All had their strong points.

Really for a cheap drivers car there isn't any other choice. Thats the problem though, it's kind of like settling because there is other option.
Clearly the FA20 is now turbocharged and DI by Subaru so all of the main problems should go away somewhere in the next year or two.
