A friend bought one when they first came out, aiming to keep it 2 years and take it back to Holland when his expat contract was up. That car was a horror story and a half. It was just amazing how many warranty claims he had, and how much time it was in the shop. Last thing I remember was that the transfer case had to be replaced.

He did export it and sold it as soon as he arrived home in Holland, dumping that beast on some poor soul there...
