    I remember I used to see these in BC or when they came down here from BC. I thought it was interesting they sold this in Canada, but not the US. I don't understand why car manufacturers do these type of things. Like how they sold the Acura TSX in Europe as branded as a Honda Accord and with a wagon option while the US had its own version of the Honda Accord.

    If this car is only good to run around get groceries what about the early models EVs with only 70 miles of range? 100 km is only 62 miles and that is plenty for 250 range EV if you plug and charge at home. Even the awd with 212 mpg is fine

    • @magmatri-studios
      @magmatri-studios 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@drivecore2021 It's really interesting how that entire segment of cars just vanished in a couple years. We went from having the Celica, Tiburon, RSX, Eclipse, Prelude, Ford Puma, and all sorts of cars like that to none now. The BRZ/GR86 is the closest thing and you could say they're better, but they are still missing a couple things like those massive trunks the FWD Sporty Coupes used to have. I actually have a 2008 Tiburon still, we've taken good care of it, and it's a lot of fun to drive. My dad had bought it new back in 2009 for a good bit less than MSRP.

      Actually the last two years of the 5.4L 3v (2009/2010) we're fine. Ford fixed most of the 5.4L's issues by those model years and they are generally reliable as well as they responded nicely from a performance standpoint with the 6-Speed vs the 4-Speed used in previous years. But overall I do agree, the 5.0L that came in the 2011+ is a far superior engine in essentially every regard.
