Tell me...why is it the Miata seems to get under every one's skin. It just bug's you to death.
Now, as far as the "Yahoo" report...they're run by the geek squad's, and they don't speak my language. I judge cars for myself.

Yeah...and here's another one..see link. I'm still working on my own personal list. I would hope the Solstice would make it near the top but, I'm not holding my breath.

My favorite thing about lists like this is how much people get excited about them when it makes their car of choice look good and then how quickly they can become meaningless drivel when it makes their car look bad.

The same thing with drivers.

Here in Houston there are two kinds of drivers:

1) The morons who drive slower than me

2) The idiots who drive faster than me



Oh yeah, and there are three kinds of accountants:

1) Those who can add

2) Those who can't add

Did you know that 77% of all statistics are made up on the spot?

But I digress...

Solstice has a CR reliability of much worse than average, But has the best rating for Customer Satisfaction. Go figure !

Figures don't lie.

But liars sure can figure.

Just another example of America-bashers using statistics in a creative manner.
