The quality engineering isnt sports car or luxury premium but for the price, you cannot beat the Accord for well... Its all around Accord of engineering competency across the board. This is by far the most rounded and well made car in its class.
You can pull off 0.83g on a skidpad with this car along with about 63mph on slalom test at Motortrend. That is late 90's expensive sports car territory brought to an affordable gigantic family sedan.
The Honda Accord is better built and has more standard kit than the equivalent BMW, Audi and Mercedes. People buy German because they are desirable, not necessarily because they are better. The Accord is a better car in terms of reliaibility and equipment, the image however is where it lets itself down. They are associated with a mature person, a grandad's car if you will.
Still they are excellent mechanically and I would pick one of these over any German equivalent any day of the week!
we have a 94 accord coupe...a white 2010 accord coupe pulled up beside me at a gas station earlier....and ..wow....they are soo much bigger then the 94's...i was like HOLY SHIT!!!
Car and driver will say bad things about honda, but than turn around and say that they pretty much beat out EVERYONE in every class. They are a biased american car company magazine. Honda is the shit! And they know it. contradicting idiots!
Love how people hate this car cause it keeps being bought in such volumes that makes the haters confused. Why is it being bought so much more than other cars? Because you live in a capitalistic North American society that rewards skillful craftsmanship and engineering maybe. Only a maybe...
@idrinorbarsaku You're exactly right....look up cost per mile on the vehicle for the useful life, usually 150k miles. It's way less with the Honda. My old CRX had 324,000 on it when I crashed it, it still ran very well. Did very minor repairs very seldom.
Here are the vehicles with the fewest problems, in order of ranking, according to the J.D. Power and Associates Vehicle Dependability Study. All vehicles are 2007 models. 1. ...Cadillac DTS 2. ...Mercury Montego 3. ...Buick LaCrosse 4. ...Lexus LS 460 5. ...Buick Lucerne 6. ...Ford Five Hundred 7. ...Mercury Milan 8. ...Lincoln MKZ 9. ...Lexus GX 470 10. ...Audi A6 11. ...Honda Accord 12. ...Toyota Prius 4 Asian cars out of 12, 2 of which are at the bottom.
@Headshot426 yeah....and 5 of those domestics won't be around in a few years. They are just %, very obscure vehicles. Just to prove, the Accord outsells the other 11 cars combined.
@Headshot426 I actually own 3 domestics....my point is JD power rankings are all fine, but the reputation that imports have built up overpower the domestic as far as sales. So obviously buy American all you can man, just have to be weary about what a true "american" car is. Since most Big 3 cars are assembled or have parts made in Mexico, South America, or Canada, it's pretty tough to find a car made, assembled in, and owned in America. peace out
i don't know why people are always hating on honda's. I drive an accord and i love it. Don't just test drive the basic model, msrp 22k and talk shit.. Upgrade it, spend the extra 10k. Its well worth it.
But then you are thinking of selling it just because of the driver's seat issue..? My Honda Civic is really a good car with great reliability and well, it's not really that comfortable sitting on the driver's seat, even though, the car is really good, so I keep driving it. So honestly, it's hard for me to just believe you are selling it because of the interior comfort.
i used to own an eagle talon dodge/mitsu build and drivetrain....i used to make fun of my dad for buying a honda....then my talon along with its endless interior and electrical problems finally died out.....i bought a honda ..LOL
Oh Ya Honda is the bomb. Last long 2. gotta o1' civic & still goin strong. Got GOOODDDD gas milage. &tha Handlin, outta dis world. I Trust it completly. No Doubt. Perfect 4 a Teenager.
And American Honda manufacturing facilities learned how make accords by the Japanese company itself... American car manufacturers suck compared to the Japanese.
Agreed.. Fords are nice, but horribly made. Have fun with the maintenance. I have the '09 Accord coupe, I love it.. Except right now, when theres literally 35 inches of snow outside of my garage, and my car cant drive over it.
Actually I have found that it has been a lot cheaper to fix/maintain my Japanese cars than my American cars. Also that they maintain much of their quality into higher miles The companies from whom I buy parts are in fact american companies. I know this because I can read the boxes.
If you had said "riced out civics are garbage!" I would have agreed. however you cant generalize a manufacturer who is generally rated higher than all American companies as garbage.
I could have been a goon and went to look up exact statistics, I didnt, I just know from what I have read and seen. I was wondering as to what you base your statement "hondas are garbage". I have had excellent experiences with every Honda I have owned.
I am being somewhat civil, can you stop with the namecalling and continue on a worded conversation this is very entertaining.
I drive a Jeep... nothing special. I have my honda in a garage for this winter... doing body work, suspension, and possibly boosting it.
I buy my cars used so where my money goes is straight into another AMERICANS wallet. When I buy parts for my cars, even my Japanese cars, they are usually made in America.
Honda had the first NA 300hp V6 in the Acura RL without direct injection, hell the S2000 get's 120hp per liter wihtout direct injection. Honda needs a V6 roadster like the S2000. I'd buy one over a 370Z anyday as long as they are close in price
Having said all that, I invite any Japanese car supporter to find a flaw in my argument. Hell, if you can't buy an American car, go buy something German....it'l sure be a lot better than something Japanese, and in most cases German cars are some of the very best engineered cars out there.
Conclusive point to the fact that you are an idiot. Actually. German cars are some of the WORST out there. Especially VW and Merc. They have been plagued with mechanical/electrical problems. American cars are more reliable than those german cars that only sell you the brand name. and even so imports mostly have them all beat.
Go ahead, comment some more...anyone willing to make fun of my van can go ahead...but guess what, it was built a few hours away from me in my own country by a domestic manufacturer. All you fuckers preaching about your Honda's have no pride or sense of direction...they are pieces of SHIT, end of story...and if you think Honda or Japan or anybody in Japan is gonna give a fuck about you when it's all said and done....you're wrong.
Also, anyone know what the car of choice is in a lot of other countries? People here are buying Korean cars: Around 800,000 HYUNDAI'S were sold in the U.S. in the year 2006, and how many people in South Korea bought an American branded car? slightly more than 4,000. That's just an example folks, but you'll find that other countries just don't reciprocate...we buy their product, they don't buy ours, in a few years we can kiss our industries goodbye, and Japan will take care of us.
well in fact buick has become extremely popular in china. As well as The focus being the most popular car in Europe. Since you brought up korea trying to mention bullshit statistics. GM actually bought out the Korean company Daewoo and is now implementing their products with the bowtie (Chevy Cruze) as well as other re badged cars sold there. The Saturn VUE actually has used the honda V6 engines in them for a long time untill recently since GM switched onto the opel platform.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I'm talking about Hyundai, not a company GM bought out. It's a good thing GM dumped that shitty Honda engine for the HF v6 in the second generation of the Vue.
dumped that shitty engine? That engine is what made the car successful you idiot. And as well it was a really good engine. They have never if not then barely had a recall on a single one of their Vtec engines unlike Dodge, Chrysler, and GM. If you wish to continue on pulling things out of your ass. Be my guest. Otherwise the facts I have stated are true. You simply have never owned one to know what pieces of engineering they are.
"I've driven enough Honda's to know how shitty they are" Again you did exactly what I said you were doing. Pulling things out of your ass. When you say driven I'm getting more of the assumption that you have only been either on the passengers side or back in one. Why? Because most people who have at least owned one, wouldn't completely bias about how shitty it is. These vehicles have proven them self's to be more reliable than most others. For DECADES now. Keep living in la la land.
Actually they have. Mostly every manufacturer has a recall on a model. GM had engine problems that could potentially start a fire. There were also a few with mechanical/electrical issues as well.
@EpiDemic117 They must be pretty bad, sounds like he's bought quite a few, to know how bad they are. Usually when I buy something bad, I don't buy any more...LoL
id say the new 3.6 in the caddy cts and camaro is one of the best v6's around. its got power and fuel economy, i dont really like honda but i have to say if i had to choose id take a honda over a toyota i think honda is better than toyota
Dude I'm getting mine soon :) It's a 2010 EXL-V6 with the 19 inches allow wheel, aero kit, chrome front and on the window, grey color with black leather! I'm so excited too!
Right, get your facts strite because Honda has one of the best Engine in the market, also that would explain why Honda keeps winning price for the best cars. Hi Hater that all.
dude... wth are you going on about. There isnt anything particularly "garbage" about Honda. However that minivan you have a video of, that is straight garbage
Yeah, the minivan I have is complete garbage, but you fail to mention my 2 Cadillac CTS's and my Chrysler 300. Are those garbage too? Are you angry because I called a Honda garbage because you own a Honda? Answer me that.
I own a Jeep and a Honda. There is just no reason to call honda garbage. I have owned several hondas. They are outstandingly reliable, relatively quick and nimble.
And I will say that yes chrysler 300s, are infact garbage. I havent personally owned one, my sister bought one and within 2 weeks traded it in for a... you guessed it, Honda! She doesnt regret that decision. For some reason I dont beleive that you have the 2 CTSs though...
I have 20,000 miles on my 08 coupe and no squealing. The pads still have plenty of life and they feel like new. IMO, this is a very isolated problem...despite the number of claims.
Wish I could say the same :( I researched for a year before I bought my new Accord. Now I can't enjoy it because every time I slow down it squeals like a pig getting slaughtered.
I love Honda cars. My first car was a 1989 Honda Accord LXi sedan and my last car will wear the Honda badge. Currently the proud owner of a 1995 Civic EX sedan (heavily modified), 2002 S2000, 2003 Acura CL Type S 6MT and a 2005 Honda Odyssey Touring.
if your going to buy a used accord or TL the markup on them is extrmely high because they are used. a 2005 TL will run about 24,000 for that prce you can get a brand new accord coupe for the same price with no miles and a warranty. we have been loyal honda acura owners for 10 plus years in getting my 2010 accord coupe EX in december 2009. you can go wrong with a honda. while all the other car companies are in a bailout honda sells itself. japanese dont stuggle. honda acura all the way baby!
what type of engine is the new accord running?- (4-cylinder) i heard it was a H22 but i seriously doubt it...i want to know the engine code so i can find parts for it
Just picked up my 2009 Accord EX-L 4 cyl yesterday morning. I absolutely love it. I've owned 4 Accords, all brand new, a '90, '95, '99 and just traded in my '03. I'm now onto my 5th Accord. They are very reliable. I've put over 200,000 miles on each of my Accords. No problems to complain of. This '09 rides quiet and firm. Handles great. I love the European-like look. The Camry may ride smoother, but it's more for people like my parents who are in their seventies. Go HONDA!!!
which would you guys think is better, a lexus 250 with about 209 bhp or the v6 honda acorrd coupe, please consider which would be better for the long run and which offers more for less. Thank you so much. Please reply.
Tough comparison, $4,000ish price difference. If you want power forget the IS250. The MT can barely pull off a burnout. However if you are looking for OUTSTANDING dealerships, service, interior quality, durability, and respectful badge then Lexus is a great choice. Honda is great too but just not in the Lexus level. Power wise it dominates it. The V6 Accord Coupe (MT only) can achieve 0-60 in 5.9 seconds! Try to get the IS350 to get the best of both worlds or (personally) the Infiniti G35/37.
Im trying to think, what would be a better buy, a Honda Accord sedan, or a Toyota Avalon? Because both cars are nice and I been trying to decide what would be good for the money.
A typical one word answer lol, and it doesn't even relate to the choices I were looking at. I only narrowed my choices to two, which were the Accord and the Avalon...I didn't say anything about a Malibu. You want to try again?
I have one and I'm telling you malibu, but don't take my word for it read user reviews on any sight. That should help, and the fact you consider a Avalon shows you care nothing about style, lol. Avalon is something my granny would drive
It looks and drive nice. Nice interior lightning in door handles and center console, quiet, comfortable and fast. Best in class MPG 22/33 LT trim with 4 cyl 6 speed auto. Remote start, two tone heated leather swede seats, large truck, auto headlights, phone and GPS tracking standard. Big wheels makes this car feel like it glides. Won more awards than any car in it's class. highest rank car in quality by JD powers.
In reliability and MPG Malibu is ranked better in ALL imports in its class
In my opinion, the Malibu is not comfortable while driving. It is tiring after a while of sitting. I feel that the accord has more support for the driver. However the Avalon glides on the road like no other car, and I don't care if it is for a "Granny". I don't want to buy a car that someone else says its good. I prefer to purchase a car based on how that vehicle is for me. If I can find a nice Accord, than I'll get it.
In that case go with Accord or get at least a Camry, there is no way you can be seen as having and type of style driving a Avalon. Avalon have never been a cool car or get a 08 CTS if you want ride quality. You will never pick up any women in that car.lol
Why does owning a certain car have to do with "picking up women"? That doesn't make any sense sir. If someone has to have a certain car to fulfill their lack of sexuality than that person shouldn't be driving.
Hey, at least Avalon's don't get stolen here in Detroit lol. Besides I only see business professionals (male) driving around in Avalon's. Now I do see a lot of old people driving Camrys though because their cheaper. I would get a Honda Accord Sedan with V6, and manual tranny, but these dealers here don't have them in stock, so I punish them be going to another competitor lol.
ppl dont like honda cuz there cheap and last longer then any other brand germans all u pay 4 is the name o i drive a benz or a beamer just so u sound cool u could make a accord a performance car if u wanted all u need is money and u can make any car as fast as u want honda r just cheap reliable and ez 2 fix and no1 else rlly has that
I got a 97 cavalier and it got 230k on it and shows no sign of slowing down. All it need was a new motor mount and some new speakers and it was on its way.
Long lasting cars are so overrated any car you buy will last long if you take care of it. If the Cavalier was rated worst than a Honda as for as reliablity, thats not saying much when I put a $30 mount and $99 speakers on it because the rear was sounding busted after 11 years.
TORQUE? American cars only have torque because of v8. American v6 vs japanese v6 cant compete. Nevermind the 4 bangers.. Honda doesnt make v8 because it doesnt have to, it can create just as much power as american v8. honda s2000 is a 2.0 4cy and makes 240 hp...NA.. no turbo/supercharger.. American cars will never duplicate that. Nissan 370 makes 330 hp out of v6.. Mustang makes less with a v8.. Just an example. Americans are powerless without bigger v8
somewhat agreed. But i love muscle cars. and alot of the American luxury brands such as Cadillac. Their CTS-V Rapes Mercedes and BMW especially on the track. Its German cars that are the problem. They cant compete to well with most Japanese cars when it comes to reliability and they cost twice as much making them completely pointless unless you want to roll with the overrated brand name. .
German cars such as BMW or Mercedes aren't supposed to be recognized for their reliability, it's more for performance. I definately agree Japanese cars are more reliable, but expensive german brands are all about the performance. And there was a time when Mercedes was reliable...until they got mixed up with Chrysler.
Finally someone who replies to my harsh comments without showing an outburst of anger. Your response is good and so are the ways you point out in. I to agree. Most problems that have been plaguing german cars now adays have to do alot with the electrical aspect of things. Electronics are a tricky business especially when implementing them inside a car that mostly controls its engine/components.
i don't think i agree with the performance argument, nissans can smoke bimmers these days... if i was in the market for a current day sports coupe i'd get the 370z over the 135i anyday. honda might not be for the performance, but when you think about it their engines squeeze the most hp for their sizes so i'm not in love with my honda but i appreciate it. i'm pretty sure an s2000 could take on an slk or z4 on the track too. i want one and a cbr then i'll be a big time honda groupie lol.
Thats so true about the horsepower honda can make out of a motor. I would love to have a s2000 there a 4 cyl and still make like 220 hp without a turbo or anything and your still going to have the honda reliabilty
Copied? now you are an idiot. That stereotypical nonsense off all Japanese automotive manufactures copying must die. Ive seen plenty of models were Mercedes has taken some designs from its competitors. And in the Durability factor. No one can top those damn japs. I can buy a car for half the price that will go far longer than those pointless overpriced luxury brand german cars.
i just test drove the 09 coupe today, and MAN was it smooth....my parents both gave me the OK for this to be my first car....very exciting. I also test drove an '10 insight, great cars....
Since 1996 all my cars are built by Honda. They are ultra-reliable, very high quality, and comfortable too. I own a '00 Civic EX Coupe, a '04 Element EX-S AWD, and am now waiting for the late '09 intro of the '10 Honda Accord Diesel 2.2L! Honda Europe has been selling them like hotcakes and they average 58mpg+, and produce 256ft/lbs of torque! Eat that you trashy plastic PRIUS...all you do is pollute the planet with your used-up battery packs!!!
I completely agree with you.. ive had a 97 accord Great car, got tottaled though, and am on a 99 accord right now with 110k miles and still runs like new. I really can wait to see how the Diesel turns out, may have to upgrade soon lol
And thats coming from an Accord owner, and Honda-fcuking-freak!
I think its the assurance that you can beat the sh1t out of your honda, have it run smooth for years while doing so, and then turn around and sell it for good money when your done.
The quality engineering isnt sports car or luxury premium but for the price, you cannot beat the Accord for well... Its all around Accord of engineering competency across the board. This is by far the most rounded and well made car in its class.

I could have been a goon and went to look up exact statistics, I didnt, I just know from what I have read and seen. I was wondering as to what you base your statement "hondas are garbage". I have had excellent experiences with every Honda I have owned.
I am being somewhat civil, can you stop with the namecalling and continue on a worded conversation this is very entertaining.

I drive a Jeep... nothing special. I have my honda in a garage for this winter... doing body work, suspension, and possibly boosting it.
I buy my cars used so where my money goes is straight into another AMERICANS wallet. When I buy parts for my cars, even my Japanese cars, they are usually made in America.

Honda had the first NA 300hp V6 in the Acura RL without direct injection, hell the S2000 get's 120hp per liter wihtout direct injection. Honda needs a V6 roadster like the S2000. I'd buy one over a 370Z anyday as long as they are close in price
MaddDogg81 2 years ago 2
Having said all that, I invite any Japanese car supporter to find a flaw in my argument. Hell, if you can't buy an American car, go buy something German....it'l sure be a lot better than something Japanese, and in most cases German cars are some of the very best engineered cars out there.

Conclusive point to the fact that you are an idiot. Actually. German cars are some of the WORST out there. Especially VW and Merc. They have been plagued with mechanical/electrical problems. American cars are more reliable than those german cars that only sell you the brand name. and even so imports mostly have them all beat.

Also, anyone know what the car of choice is in a lot of other countries? People here are buying Korean cars: Around 800,000 HYUNDAI'S were sold in the U.S. in the year 2006, and how many people in South Korea bought an American branded car? slightly more than 4,000. That's just an example folks, but you'll find that other countries just don't reciprocate...we buy their product, they don't buy ours, in a few years we can kiss our industries goodbye, and Japan will take care of us.
th3ha1og0d 2 years ago
well in fact buick has become extremely popular in china. As well as The focus being the most popular car in Europe. Since you brought up korea trying to mention bullshit statistics. GM actually bought out the Korean company Daewoo and is now implementing their products with the bowtie (Chevy Cruze) as well as other re badged cars sold there. The Saturn VUE actually has used the honda V6 engines in them for a long time untill recently since GM switched onto the opel platform.

I'm talking about Hyundai, not a company GM bought out. It's a good thing GM dumped that shitty Honda engine for the HF v6 in the second generation of the Vue.
th3ha1og0d 2 years ago
dumped that shitty engine? That engine is what made the car successful you idiot. And as well it was a really good engine. They have never if not then barely had a recall on a single one of their Vtec engines unlike Dodge, Chrysler, and GM. If you wish to continue on pulling things out of your ass. Be my guest. Otherwise the facts I have stated are true. You simply have never owned one to know what pieces of engineering they are.

"I've driven enough Honda's to know how shitty they are" Again you did exactly what I said you were doing. Pulling things out of your ass. When you say driven I'm getting more of the assumption that you have only been either on the passengers side or back in one. Why? Because most people who have at least owned one, wouldn't completely bias about how shitty it is. These vehicles have proven them self's to be more reliable than most others. For DECADES now.

I own a Jeep and a Honda. There is just no reason to call honda garbage. I have owned several hondas. They are outstandingly reliable, relatively quick and nimble.

if your going to buy a used accord or TL the markup on them is extrmely high because they are used. a 2005 TL will run about 24,000 for that prce you can get a brand new accord coupe for the same price with no miles and a warranty. we have been loyal honda acura owners for 10 plus years in getting my 2010 accord coupe EX in december 2009. you can go wrong with a honda. while all the other car companies are in a bailout honda sells itself. japanese dont stuggle. honda acura all the way baby!

They are very reliable. I've put over 200,000 miles on each of my Accords. No problems to complain of. This '09 rides quiet and firm. Handles great. I love the European-like look. The Camry may ride smoother, but it's more for people like my parents who are in their seventies. Go HONDA!!!

since I had to chose between these two cars a while ago, i recommend the Honda coupe.
why? well, because it looks better and got more room inside. but if u want luxury and fancy name in a small compact car .... go for the Lexus 250.
have fun with whatever u chose, peace
reno6916 2 years ago
Even through Honda has a bigger V6 then the IS250
It gets better fuel efficiency and more power and if you really want a luxury vehicle get a Acura because it is better than a lexus in so many ways
StarNorth2008 2 years ago
Tough comparison, $4,000ish price difference. If you want power forget the IS250. The MT can barely pull off a burnout. However if you are looking for OUTSTANDING dealerships, service, interior quality, durability, and respectful badge then Lexus is a great choice. Honda is great too but just not in the Lexus level. Power wise it dominates it. The V6 Accord Coupe (MT only) can achieve 0-60 in 5.9 seconds! Try to get the IS350 to get the best of both worlds or (personally) the Infiniti G35/37.

Malibu

A typical one word answer lol, and it doesn't even relate to the choices I were looking at. I only narrowed my choices to two, which were the Accord and the Avalon...I didn't say anything about a Malibu. You want to try again?

I have one and I'm telling you malibu, but don't take my word for it read user reviews on any sight. That should help, and the fact you consider a Avalon shows you care nothing about style, lol. Avalon is something my granny would drive
lilgman191 2 years ago
So what makes the Malibu so much better than the Accord? Or vice versa.
DaminoLordXL 2 years ago
It looks and drive nice. Nice interior lightning in door handles and center console, quiet, comfortable and fast. Best in class MPG 22/33 LT trim with 4 cyl 6 speed auto. Remote start, two tone heated leather swede seats, large truck, auto headlights, phone and GPS tracking standard. Big wheels makes this car feel like it glides. Won more awards than any car in it's class. highest rank car in quality by JD powers.
In reliability and MPG Malibu is ranked better in ALL imports in its class
lilgman191 2 years ago
In my opinion, the Malibu is not comfortable while driving. It is tiring after a while of sitting. I feel that the accord has more support for the driver. However the Avalon glides on the road like no other car, and I don't care if it is for a "Granny". I don't want to buy a car that someone else says its good. I prefer to purchase a car based on how that vehicle is for me. If I can find a nice Accord, than I'll get it.
DaminoLordXL 2 years ago
In that case go with Accord or get at least a Camry, there is no way you can be seen as having and type of style driving a Avalon. Avalon have never been a cool car or get a 08 CTS if you want ride quality. You will never pick up any women in that car.lol
lilgman191 2 years ago
Why does owning a certain car have to do with "picking up women"? That doesn't make any sense sir. If someone has to have a certain car to fulfill their lack of sexuality than that person shouldn't be driving.

Cool people drive cool cars, Avalon is a old ladies car like Buicks, but Buicks are cool and fast. Thats not what I meant by picking up women either.
lilgman191 2 years ago
Hey, at least Avalon's don't get stolen here in Detroit lol. Besides I only see business professionals (male) driving around in Avalon's. Now I do see a lot of old people driving Camrys though because their cheaper. I would get a Honda Accord Sedan with V6, and manual tranny, but these dealers here don't have them in stock, so I punish them be going to another competitor lol.

Long lasting cars are so overrated any car you buy will last long if you take care of it. If the Cavalier was rated worst than a Honda as for as reliablity, thats not saying much when I put a $30 mount and $99 speakers on it because the rear was sounding busted after 11 years.

Howie262 2 years ago
TORQUE? American cars only have torque because of v8. American v6 vs japanese v6 cant compete. Nevermind the 4 bangers.. Honda doesnt make v8 because it doesnt have to, it can create just as much power as american v8. honda s2000 is a 2.0 4cy and makes 240 hp...NA.. no turbo/supercharger.. American cars will never duplicate that. Nissan 370 makes 330 hp out of v6.. Mustang makes less with a v8.. Just an example. Americans are powerless without bigger v8
teoatl 2 years ago 3
somewhat agreed. But i love muscle cars. and alot of the American luxury brands such as Cadillac. Their CTS-V Rapes Mercedes and BMW especially on the track. Its German cars that are the problem. They cant compete to well with most Japanese cars when it comes to reliability and they cost twice as much making them completely pointless unless you want to roll with the overrated brand name. .
EpiDemic117 2 years ago
German cars such as BMW or Mercedes aren't supposed to be recognized for their reliability, it's more for performance. I definately agree Japanese cars are more reliable, but expensive german brands are all about the performance. And there was a time when Mercedes was reliable...until they got mixed up with Chrysler.

Finally someone who replies to my harsh comments without showing an outburst of anger. Your response is good and so are the ways you point out in. I to agree. Most problems that have been plaguing german cars now adays have to do alot with the electrical aspect of things. Electronics are a tricky business especially when implementing them inside a car that mostly controls its engine/components.
EpiDemic117 2 years ago
i don't think i agree with the performance argument, nissans can smoke bimmers these days... if i was in the market for a current day sports coupe i'd get the 370z over the 135i anyday. honda might not be for the performance, but when you think about it their engines squeeze the most hp for their sizes so i'm not in love with my honda but i appreciate it. i'm pretty sure an s2000 could take on an slk or z4 on the track too. i want one and a cbr then i'll be a big time honda groupie lol.
