I don't really get how it's ignorance when I already know that smaller capacity cars don't exist in america. Fact is, the american mentality drives the requirements for cars there. And, as there is no demand for smaller capacity cars, they just don't bother making them.
But anywho. I have a 2.2td PT cruiser. Had it over 10 years now and it's just starting to get parts needing changed. Overall a really nice car to drive
