are we talking reliability or longevity?



my tr3 is 46 years old and still runs, but its broken a lot, thats longevity



my gsl-se hasnt missed a day since 99, thats reliability.



honda, and toyota are good at reliable, mecedes and the older volvo's are good at longevity

this turned into a big pee pee fight about mileage





miles dont mean its reliable...cars might have 3 million kilos on them and **** like that...but how many times did it need to get fixed

Toyotas. I say that because they're overbuilt especialyl compared to Honda's. They just last longer. Well, actually it all depends, nvm

I drove my cavalier around for like 40,000 kms without touching anything under the hood except air filters and doing oil changes (and checking levels, etc).



That was last year



And then this year I put something new on it every week and I only put like 10,000 on it so far..



It used to be really reliable but they all start needing new everything before too long.. It's a GM..



It's for sale btw..
