I can truthfully say that I have never purchased any of my vehicles based on a magazine review. It all came down to shopping around and driving what was available at the time that fit my needs, lifestyle, and sometimes connected with me on an emotional level. Whatever was the best car based on this, I then bought.

That said, I have had only one regret which was a '01 Dodge Durango that aged way quicker than it should have and basically was ready to wholesale out before it reached 80K miles. Many Toyotas have been parked in my driveway over the years as I found them to deliver the best overall package per dollar even if they weren't always the best "drivers" cars. The landscape has changed and that isn't necessarily the case any more. Being open minded is the best approach.

My three favorite cars which I have owned >
1978 SAAB EMS
1984 Toyota Supra
1987 BMW 535is

And hopefully 2017 BMW M2, but still too early to tell.
