I don't see too much fail over there... Pretty tame actually. Most owners on a platform specific forum are pretty quick to slam other platforms.

As an auto tech that has to work on all platforms, I did get a laugh out of VW owners questioning mitsu reliability...

The VR4 weighs 3800 lbs, not 3200 lbs FYI.

Yea, VW owners saying something is unreliable is extremely funny.

Yeah that's what stuck out to me, that and being hard to work on......I guess they are hard to work on compared to an old bug anyway. I've owned VW's, got to be the most unreliable shit I've owned. Every weekend I was fixing shit but to be fair they were used for off road.

Yea, cause doing a timing belt on a 3S just sucks compared to an A4 chassis.....

Yep, whole front end has to come off, worst design ever.

I did a timing belt by myself in 2.5 hours on my 3/s once

Yeah.... VW people are silly. My brother just bought a set of $330 coilovers for his Golf haha.
