These are pretty based desu

>there are people who unironically enjoy GM products

Driving is something I enjoy. So I will drive a car I enjoy. I've had four BMWs ('02 540it, '03 M5, '08 535xit, '98 750iL), but went with a Lincoln (2011 MKS EcoBoost). It's comfortable for long trips, and enough torque and top end to deal with most shit heads.

I dislike FWD, but had an '01 Saturn L300 that was fun until the trans blew again. I liked the looks of my '07 MonteCarlo SS, but torque steer because FWD.

Of all the cars I've driven, a FI V12 takes me to my happy place, which in why in going to buy an '07 SL65 this winter.

I think you're right on the big impressions at certain times, but I also think the worst thing that can happen is that you end up owning the car that left such an impression.

When I was 16 and shopping for the car I would share with my dad for the next couple years (the plan being I would work and gradually pay them for it so it could be mine when I went to college, just so that autism doesn't derail everything) we came across a Civic Si. It seemed nice, it was cool to me, it had a nav system which I had literally never seen in an affordable car before etc. But, we decided to sleep on it, the car sold, and we ended up with something else.

But the impression stuck. The mistake was that I bought one a year ago, and it has been an absolute piece of shit, even though there was nothing obviously wrong in the PPI I had done, and has just been depressing to own. I guess it has just been a matter of "don't meet your idols" or something like it.

I don't ignore the flaws in my Mopars. My Challenger is having problems with the digital gauges. My Ramcharger has the worst small block ever and is the most frustrating combination of Imperial and Metric bullshit. My wife's Ram gets shit mileage and the 8 speed is sluggish.

I'd still take a Dodge over any other brand. I've had better experiences in their cars than any other.
