What will your next car be?

The Mazdas are decent looking cars overall. However I see a lot more Mazdas on the road with rust issues, than any other Japanese brand. Even cars that are only a few years old. Mazda 3s appear to be the worst, but I see some other current models with rust as well. Puts me completely off of Mazda.

I'm alsonot keen on a lot of Toyota and Honda's futuristic styling these days, especially what they've done with the Rav4. However, I quite like the current Camry and Corolla styling.

Anyone got thoughts on Mitsubishi?

I would have gone for a Mirage if they'd been around a little longer, but they're not far enough down the depreciation cycle yet. They're very reliable so far, from what I've read. Lots of Geo Metro owners have embraced them as the Metro's modern replacement.

They're coarse, loud, slow, and cheap in every way, good and bad. But they're put together in a way that makes them easy to work on, and they get 40+mpg without any hybrid or turbo shenanigans. It takes a certain kind of person to appreciate a car like that.
