Please note "popular" is based on sales and all $ are in US. Please also note that "popular" does not necessarily mean "the best or better", it only means that a lot more people got suckered into buying a lemon car, i.e. good promotional and advertising program! It is of course possible that popular is also good and money well sent as well.
Buying a car is the 2nd most important buying decision in spending your money, don't throw away your hard-earned money!
