I had no problems with my Mitsubishi other than normal wear and tear. My Audi came from the factory with a defective transmission and the wrong trim installed. But, I have to say it's much more fun to drive.

I, too, owned a Mitsubishi beater for 8 yrs otu of college... I absolutely destroyed that car, no care for it whatsoever. Almost every single non essential thing on it broke (power locks/windows, stereo, sunroof (not factory though), AC, paint, interior lights... but it always ran perfectly fine. (and a great snow car too, owing to the fact that it was pretty much the heaviest 4 cylinder car made in the 90's.)

I just got a Audi A6 this summer, and so far, I'm enjoying it. When the turbo kicks in in 2nd, it can snap your neck pretty good... which I love.

HOWEVER, I am biding my time and waiting for something to break, as I've been warned a million times.
