Replying to: bhmr59 (Jul 13, 2007 5:51 pm) So thats 2 visits for one thing, and if that one thing goes wrong twice, that's 4 visits already!!! You can reach 6 to 8 visits easy. The reason I still consider HOnda's to be bulletproof are many: 1) It was a first year model and not built in Japan 2) The japanese built/assembled Civics we've had have been bulletproof and required no return visits, thats is 0 visits. 3) It was for things like window moldings rippling and wrinkling and a powerseat that functioned but "bumped" a tad bit at the end of its "track." I'm picky. 4) It had two rattle sources to deal with. These are forgiveable offenses; what isn't forgiveable are things that leave you stranded because the car won't start (never happened with any Honda) or things that cost you money you shouldn't have to spend (Honda steps up if something does go wrong, even after warranty). So Hip hip hooray for Honda!  But, alas... I did go with a German car, and I might not have if the Accord had been perfect rather than near perfect.

Replying to: mz6greyghost (Jul 18, 2007 4:02 am) Excellent choice. I checked it out at the dealer too when buying my weekend beater, an 06 Frontier, a few months ago. The interior is much nicer and I love the looks of the car. Nissan got it right again. They build a great product. |

Replying to: tjc78 (Jul 17, 2007 11:29 am) My sentiments exactly!!! Why would I pay X amount of dollars for 200 HP and 30 MPG when I can get (for about the same amount of money) 250 HP and 31 MPG? It's a tough sell. You have to do a X-$$$ equation to get it to be considered by anyone paying attention. |

Replying to: urnews (Jul 18, 2007 10:47 am) There is traceable accurate history on all makes and models. And history shows certain companies to be quite dependable, reliable, and consistant. This is shown for years and years, and can therefore lead to solid predictions. It is sort of like a batter that hits for a .330+ average 10 years in a row. Do you really think in year 11 he's going to hit under .300? |

Replying to: mchang (Jul 18, 2007 5:21 pm) They are both approx $24k plus tax, tag and title. 2007 Altima 3.5SE manual 2007 Mazdaspeed6 Sport manual That would be a tough one. The Mazda looks better, but the Altima would probably have more room inside. I would go with the Altima, mainly because it's a V6.

Replying to: andres3 (Jul 18, 2007 5:09 pm) So which history do you go by? Pre-2005 or Post-2005? Don't you think post-2005 is a better predictor for 2008? |
