I use the space constantly. I couldn't see being without it. In fact, I'll likely buy a station wagon when the Viggen gives in. (This is something that I thought I'd never say.) My car hasn't been unreliable at all. Perhaps you got a bad one? I do have some squeeks, but these come from the rear, which got hit to the tune of 11k in damage. So, I cannot determine if this is from poor repair or poor initial build. My doors don't squeek. I've never met the limits of the car's handling ability. I think I'm too poor of a driver for that. Plus, there's no way to even determine how fast I can go, because most roads around here have 25 mph speed limits, and tripling the speed isn't a nice thing to do. Perhaps I'll have to buy a used 911 to compare it with. I'm opposite when it comes to engines: I drove the WRX and wasn't impressed, but that's because it has no low end power. I don't like having to switch gears at 4-5,000 rpm just to keep a high speed.
