Thats true, toyota doesnt have ANY sports car now... I think they pushed that segment to Lexus.
When you put an engine in a sports car and tout its high revving engine, it should be expected to take it. To me, it points to either a lack of attention to detail or an 'IDGAF' attitude... either doesnt sit well with me, and when you throw in the 4-cyl issues they had (pre-cat substrate breaks apart and gets sucked back into the combustion chamber, scoring the cylinder and thus high oil consumption and lack of power), my overall view of Nissan drivetrains is pretty sour.
They've just had a lot of issues that make me go wtf... remember the titans blowing out rear diffs all over the place? I mean its kinda funny, but sad at the same time, when yet another Titan recall comes out and people rejoice that finally their truck isnt part one lol...

So, we ended up buying a car that didn't even get discussed in this thread. We picked up a honda pilot this weekend. Got a heck of a deal as well.
Still have to sell our current car. Anyone in the Chicago area need a car that gets good gas mileage?
