Do you drive a reliable car?
>>
>>15184416
Yes.
A Honda.

I never get how Acura has such a low reliability rating even though it is the "luxury" auto division for Honda. In all seriousness, fuck Acura these days. I hope it crash and burn because of their stupid decision over the years.

Honda and Subaru. It makes sense since I beat on cars almost mercilessly.

Why do you idiots always fall for this stupid shit? This is dumb shit like my Honda civic doesn't fit my XXL big gulp.

The only one that matters is the mechanics index

Now THAT is reliability

Yes. My Lexus is 17 years old and it has only had regular maintenance, some gaskets have been changed and lower ball joints are new. No major works, no rust, no tears in the seats whatsoever and still drives like a dream.

regardless, i've had a 2007 toyota for 4 years and it's only needed a new muffler and a new starter (the starter was my fault)

I had a bad o2 sensor and a aesthetic problem with the carpet - both quick fixes. Not too bad so far. Old ones were worse.

Yes

I don't listen to reports that gather data from normies. Just take a look at some of the auto gore threads here. Some mechanics from /o/ tell some pretty scary tales from the shop. The average consumer is a fucking idiot.

But I'm sure that different brands may be able to go longer without proper maintenance. I do my oil in my S197 every 4000ish miles and the fucking thing runs like a top. Bought it with 70000 and it's about to hit 100000 and I've never had a hiccup with it.

Yep. Thing's been abused like hell and it's still going strong.
>>
>>15184416
1992 Ford Ranger with 221,000 miles on it.

Only have to replace headlights and change the oil every so often, even the clutch is original (though I think it may be starting to finally go).

Yes, because it's a european-spec car. They're built to fucking last.

Acura.

Lmao thats a ton of work for a "reliable" luxury car.
My 07 Lexus LS460 that I bought with 90k miles that is now at 114k has needed brakepads and the expected 100k service. Keep in mind this was 75k car new and was competing with S classes and 7 series.

Mazda 3 is garbage.
It may be mechanically reliable but the design quality is about as shit as you can get. The road noise at 30 mph is greater than any car I've ever driven at freeway speeds.
Theres part of the problem with lists like this. I'd rather have some check engine light come on for a random reason and have to take it to the dealer to check instead of horrible ride quality and poorly designed ergonomics (but less mechanical issues)
>>
>>15193320
road noise is kinda bad, that's true.
>design quality is about as shit as you can get
lol what
the first gen Mazda 3 has the best interior, best handling and best exterior looks out of any comparable car.
