The 380 has the less efficient engine, but I am getting 16/21 with mine. There are all kinds of minor issues - sagging seats, window lifter guides, water seepage around the rear window, ACC controls. They can be considered a fun challenge, or a nightmare - depending on your tolerance and skill levels. The 14" tires are becoming hard to find.

The underbody will rust out quickly if there is a break in the undercoating. This can happen if someone lifts the car by the part that looks like a frame member underneath, instead of the lift points along the side of the body.
