just people's perception of cainis cars in general, if dun care what others think of your car, then you're all good
other than that; probably RV, spare parts, whether or not you have local mechanics that are quite familiar with cherry cars in general |

Shit durability.
Parts will be hard to find, need to import, if heavier parts be prepared to pay heavy postage. |
