The 09 accords look really nice in terms of appearance, and im sure the quality hasn't changed on them. As for the mustang, looks the same as the 05 version and everyone drives them in Chicago

used 2008 altima? for a few grand more you may be able to get into a used 2008 maxima if you can negotiate and have a decent dp

i got 45 mpg on the interstate when i drove my 06 civic lx sedan from chicago to st.paul. plus the civics are just an all around better car. honda>ford

ya, thats why my wifes 05 accord hybrid currently needs 3500 dollars worth of work with 35000 miles on it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif hondas fuckin ****.

get like an 06 or 07 mazdaspeed3. I love my '04 mz3 hatch with just the 2.5l 4, I can only imagine how much fun the speed is. Good gas mileage, fun to drive, plenty of room for system/groceries/gear/whatever. Hard to beat

Hondas certainly don't ****. You're going to have some duds no matter which company you go to. And knowing female drivers, this probably isn't completely Honda's fault

i own a 06 Saleen Mustang and a 08 Civic Hybrid...even though your looking at a V6 its still a fun car to drive and very peppy especially with a 5spd.....as far as a Civic...you should be able to find an 08 Civic Si through the dealer locater ...you will like it far better than the reg Civics...and you have a choice of 4 door or 2 door in the Si

I also would opt out for an SI if you could find one. Very fun car to drive and still reliable and good on gas.

I wouldn't get a Mustang unless it was a v8, hell I don't even think I would get one of those seeing how many problems my co-worker goes through with his. Only 15000 miles on his 08 and has had a ton of problems. I think he just got a lemon myself. Personally me, I would get the gas saver, even if it is an LX, which is still decent.

Did you happen to read what I wrote?

Lemon.............L-E-M-O-N.

Or it could be the way he drives it, who knows. I just know he has had to take it back 4 times to the dealership in the 6 months he has had it. Maybe it is 8 months, I can't remember.
