Actually, that is very situational. The 86 is a very practical/rational car depending on your situation.

For example, in my case I went looking for a sporty, fun to drive, commuter car that got decent (as in much better than my Suburban or Astro) gas mileage. It also needed to be able to stop on the way home and pick up groceries or make a small Sam's/Costco run. I also wanted to have something MomHawk and I could take on a couple's weekend or longer vacation.

The 86 fits that in spades. Very practical.
