Jaja, I've bought a 2021 HONDA Civic coupe to my daughter last December 2023 and she started college this March 2024. SHE FREAKING LOVE IT!!! (And I'm not in college, but I have a 2018 Honda Fit and my wife haves a 2020 CR-V 🤓💪)

Honda Toyota, Mazda, or grandma’s beater Buick that she has owned since new.

Just don't get used europeans and Nissans, then you'll be fine

You should consider public transport instead of weighing down someone with operation cost of a car and insurance

The Mazda3 is a solid choice. Have a 2014 w/ the 2.5l, just about to hit 7 years of ownership, and it just hit 150k miles. The most reliable car I've owned. There hasn't been any degradation in fuel efficiency either.

Some are decent. My old girlfriend had 225k miles before she had major issues. She got rid of it after that. It was a manual too.

That’s what I thought. Then the transmission quit. Ugh.

I leased a 2020 Honda Civic EX-L hatchback for my daughter 4 years ago. I decided to take the purchase to own option last year when I got the payoff amount from Honda credit because she loves her Civic so much. The dealership I got it from even gave us an additional 3 year extended warranty for pennies on the dollar. It’s nice to see her graduate high school and now college with the same car as she ventures off into the next stage in her life.

I have a 2020 Honda Civic. It has over 80,000 and I honestly have not really taken the best care of it, but the darn thing runs even better now than it did when it had a few thousand miles.

I'll grab the CX-5, CRV, Rav4 , Accord, and the Camry

Hatchbacks. Best cars for college students.

@ontheaaron Ай бұрын

What about discontinued cars?

@chiiiiweeeee Ай бұрын

the accord v6 is the best one, it's the fastest car on the list and you can get a manual one

@JamaicanMeCrazy Ай бұрын

Used civic or Corolla. Anything else they can buy themselves

@genes.3285 Ай бұрын

When I was in college I lived either on campus in the dorms or close by and I did not need a car. A car would have been a distraction.

@ontheaaron Ай бұрын

Camry 2007-2017 best

@Sarranwrapdc4 Ай бұрын

The answer is $5000 Honda Civic or Toyota Camry/Lexus Es300

All the Nissan bashers, I drove a Sentra in college it was a great car. I’d put it on my list.

@stellavidaurri3533 20 күн бұрын

It was probably an older model Sentra I would assume because the newer model Nissans are just not made the same. The older Nissans are bulletproof

@@stellavidaurri3533 ah yeah it was way older. Sentra is still fine IMO.

I'm a total Nissan girl Myself I'm partial to the Maximas even though they had their issues with transmission problems. But I'm a firm believer that if you service the tranny every 15, 000 miles by changing out the fluid than the transmissions will last
