My mom loved her Honda. No. Really. My mom? She friggin’ LOVED her Honda. I was a kid in the 80s, and have these great memories of my mom in her 30s, zipping around in her little black Accord. Sunroof open, radio going. Her car was a stick, and I remember the sound her bracelets made as she shifted. She looked so cool and beautiful to me. My mom was IT! 😁 She drove that car for well over a decade before buying herself a BMW -a dream that became an accomplishment. At that point, she garaged the Honda, and from there it took her several years to finally part with it. Yep. Honda. Great car.

How many miles on a used car is still considered reliable? What is the range you consider when looking for a good used car?
@carhelpcorner3 жыл бұрын
It depends on the car. Brands like Toyota, which have an outstanding overall reputation for reliability, can manage 200,000 miles and still last a very long time if well maintained. Others can be very problematic after only 100,000 miles. Generally speaking though, around 100,000 miles or 150,000km is the approximate threshold at which many cars begin to require regular repairs.

Small bit of advice since you seem new to all this: pay the $75-$150 to take a used car to a mechanic to inspect before purchase. Mechanics aren't soothsayers, so they won't catch every possible thing wrong with a car, but in my experience they can identify things which may add up soon or simply tell you that they see a lot of XYZ engines in the shop and to be wary. It sucks to have to cancel a deal, but let me assure you that it beats the alternative of buying a money pit. Best of luck to you!

If a car has 200,000 miles on it, Buy it. Don't miss a beat. If it could get to 200000 and still live to tell the tale; that's gotta be reliable to make it that far. Don't let it slip through the fingers.

If you want a reliable Japanese car that's fun to drive and not too old, good on gas and low on repair and insurance premiums, than do what I did last year and get a 5-door Mazda-3 Hatchback, 2010 / 2011 / 2012 model year, You can easily find one for under 5K, even a non hatch is fine, Those cars are great with powerful engine and comfy interior. The only car I would stay clear from on your list is the Caravan.
