Replying to: eldaino (Aug 01, 2007 10:19 am) "nice enough for ya?" Very much so, why would I engage in an argument with someone who does not know how to spell(thoroughly, handling) and refers to himself as (i)!That's not like missing a comma or an apostrophe when you're typing fast!No wonder I don't like your choice, and yes you cannot see a Saturn that looks like it, because they are not running anymore Replies to this message: pat (Aug 02, 2007 2:57 am) eldaino (Aug 02, 2007 6:33 am)

Replying to: sssfegy (Aug 01, 2007 2:43 pm) Okay, now you're piling on.   Let's end the personal comments from both sides here.

#1295 of 1333 maintence and repairs on Civic and Mazda3 by aiwa112 Sep 20, 2007 (5:51 pm)
Im stuck between the Honda Civic LX and Mazda 3 iTouring both are great cars and a little spaced out in reliability. I would like to know how much has everyone paid for maintence and repairs on the Civic and Mazda3, preferably 2003 models but all welcome. P.S. dont include oil changes and normal maintence.

Replying to: aiwa112 (Sep 20, 2007 5:51 pm) I have a 2007 Mazda 3 S 5 dr. I've had it for 13 months and 21k miles and have had NO additional expenses, no need for repairs, no problems. just change oil, filters, rotate tires and wash it. Very pleasing experience.

#1297 of 1333 ESC the deciding factor by chickenlips Oct 16, 2007 (5:24 pm)
I love Hondas and have owned several. But the lack of stability control in the non-Si Civic made the Mazda3 the obvious winner to me. I just bought a 2008 sTouring.   Honda - will all your advertising on safety, why no ESC??? You lost a sale.

Replying to: silvermzda3 (Sep 21, 2007 9:33 am) ditto at 28k (hard LI-NYC commute driving)...and I'm avg a surprising 26mpg. Overall quite pleased. I miss my old SUV for the size, but for mileage, pep while merging and passing, style and reliability, I'm pretty darned satisfied with my M3s.

Replying to: eldaino (Jul 25, 2007 12:03 pm) Fair point but I'm not sure I agree. Many, many Mazda Protege's on the road with 100's of thousands of miles on them. The M3 is similar and if anything an improvement so longterm reliability is not completely disregarded. Japanese cars in general (Honda, Toyota, Mazda, Subaru) are all known for long term reliability. Unquestionably better than late model American cars where 100k miles is still considered a lofty goal.

Replying to: mongoose65 (Oct 17, 2007 1:17 am) "Unquestionably better than late model American cars where 100k miles is still considered a lofty goal."   Not exactly an unbiased statement wouldn't you say?   Geez, I've owned a mixture of American, European and Japanese cars over the years, and the ONLY ONE that didn't make 100,000 miles with ease was one of the Japanese cars, a Mazda. The flip side is our two current American cars, one with over 150,000 and the other with only 99,000 miles. For those two cars, I'm betting that even a quarter of a million miles will be a piece of cake.   Best Regards, Shipo Replies to this message: ohplezz (Oct 21, 2007 6:37 pm) mongoose65 (Oct 22, 2007 3:22 am) cz75 (Nov 19, 2007 9:34 am) shipo (Nov 19, 2007 12:27 pm)

Replying to: shipo (Oct 17, 2007 3:07 am) I've had a number of domestic cars and one honda. All of the domestics barely made it past 100k with lots of repairs. My 96 honda is over 234k now and going strong.
