^ Taylor192 did have a streak of bad luck. He has a W203 C-coupe.

I have one too. While there were a ton of warranty issues (like cracked steering buttons, broken trunk hatch button, and like 30 other warranty repairs) in the first few years which I admit is worse than ANY domestic we have ever owned, nothing major has ever happened that resulted in a crippled car. His car might've been built on a Friday afternoon.

And nothing beats the fun factor of a Euro

Actually, I testdrove the RSX, TSX, Mazda6, 325Ci, A4, Civic and Accord before settling on the C-coupe. This was in 2003. The main difference/dealbreaker was that all of the Jap cars above seemed to "float" above 120km/h. Handling was about the same overall (I don't autox so what do I know). I originally went out to buy a Jap, and ended up with a German instead.
