I never liked BMWs. My brother is a huge fan, but the clutch pedals lack feel, the parts are super expensive (and always have been) and they are way over hyped.
Having said that, this weekend I was thinking, “why doesn’t some make take a chance and make a line of light, RWD family cars.” I guess that I know why, but how fun would that be? The GT86 is great (despite the Nazi SS logo), but it’s cramped. As a real luddite, I’d prefer a Miata. But how much fun were the 2002, Datsun 510, AE86 Corolla, Cortina, etc. I’d like someone to have a $18k 4 door, RWD, 2800 lbs. car with 150 hp AND the dependability and convience of a modern car (not the 1000 blinking lights though).
