Both have to be from the same brand. Sub-brands are considered their own brands- Can’t group Hyundai and Genesis.

Additional condition buy both the “Best” and “Worst” vehicle from the lineup that you will have to actually drive. Eg. Nissan GTR and Nissan Versa base

Try to think beyond super high end Luxury/performance brands because even the “Worst” PARSH is pretty good.

No budget limit.

Only new because it increases your chances of choosing a FWD CVT Crossover (Evil Laughter)

Minimal ownership of at least 5 years

These will be the only 2 cars for your family so “Think of the Children!”

Ah but a manual 320i is a “jalop-Special” after all. I would go base model Front Wheel drive X1 28i

The M4 GTS wheels are currently my favorite stock wheels now.

The Porsche Macan and 911 GT2-RS would clearly be the best answer, but since you said to avoid luxury brands, I’d go for the Chevrolet ZR1 and Spark

If I have a Ford GT for the weekend/track I’d happily take a base Fiesta/F150 for the commute.

Ew no, I want a base automatic 320i.

The ZF 8HP is a gem.

Easy.

Alfa Romeo isn’t really a luxury brand, even though America thinks it is. I’d daily the Stelvio and weekend the Giulia Quad. If one goes in the shop, out comes the other.

Your mistake is assuming only one is broken down at a time.

Also I am sure they have some really mediocre base models if you also consider their European lineup.

Then I’d get a Giulietta diesel. All the flair with the fuel economy. But the Stelvio is better down here.

An Iso Grifo (my favorite car if I had to chose one) and the Iso Lele... the last car they made before going out of business (no wonder! the back half is melting...) The Isetta was also an option but all of those belong in a dumpster as far as this BMW guy is concerned.

If we’re going with worst I think you need to go with the sedan rather than the hatch.

Stopped selling them a year or two ago. The worst Lexus I thought would have been too good. If Lexus is allowed and AM is not, I’ll take a still on a dealer lot CT200h and and a LC500 please.

Can they both technically be the same model if the company has only the one? DQ me, I still think this is the winner.

Ct200H and LC500 is s good combo. Also, the ES350/RX350 are a snoozefest. Boring cars can be considered “Worst” in this context no?

It would be new to me! 95HP powerglide for the Corvair and 6.0 for the truck. Should be about a 300HP gap.

Best: Subaru BRZ

Worst: Subaru Impreza 2.0i

It was kinda hard deciding what was the worst Subaru, but I figured the Ascent is pretty useful. The Impreza has a CVT and just has ok MPG for an Economy car. Oh, and pretty weak engine.

Well the CT200h is probably the most base car they have and it’s also slow even though it looks great and the RX350 is a darn good car, no matter what people think.

Even though the chassis of the Charger is adapted from a 20-year-old E-class, it’s still pretty sturdy. The W210 may be the nadir of Benz Durability but there are still plenty of them running around here in the Charlotte area. Almost all of them have yellowed, faded, and oxidized ovoid headlamps.

I think a lot of people could argue about worst Subaru but to me it’s the cross trek.
