Hi i have a question. I am thinking about buying my first gn but my friend who has one claims that they break 75 to 80% of the time and are not reliable, so should i get one or not.

We'll all be a bit prejudiced here, but the idea that these cars are somehow less dependable than say a camaro or muskrat is a croc. Yes the care and upkeep is a bit more, specifically oil changes, but like any car out there if it's been taken care of, it will treat you right. There are people on this board with WELL over 150k on original engines and even original turbos. Conversely, if they've been thrashed and beaten on a lot, than yes you will have trouble. It all depends on maintanence and driving style.
