The engine in the Stratus blew up with a touch over 50k on the clock. We traded it as was for the Accord the same day.

The tranny on the Intrepid failed at 625 miles and the dealer wouldn't take the car back. It was a mess to own and ultimately led to the purchase of my first Acura.

It's not showing any signs of it, but I already had one replaced under warranty at 68k and don't want it to happen again as it is out of warranty now. If your read up on the 2g TL on here you'll find it's pretty common. Great car other than that issue.

Oh and the beetle was bought for $600 not running, my father and I got it running and sold it for 1300 on ebay all before I even got my drivers license.

First car was bought in 2001: Acura 3.2 CL Type S...

Second car was bought just back in November: Infiniti FX50S.

I now also own a Mazda Mazda3 GT because that's the car my wife had before she married me.
