Do you have one?

Do you like it?


Did you read this even though you don't have one?

Are you mad?

    I'd rather have a Mazda CX-5, but I plan on driving my '98 CR-V manual until we get flying cars.

    I prefer the interior of an Acura.

    Car mechanic, stereo installer, now owner of a paint restoration buisness...

    Acuras are very nice looking cars with nice looking interiors when they are new.... Now assembly is a completley different story lol... Nearly every acura i have worked on; door panels, head liner, pratically anywhere that glue could be used it was used n seems like they got it from a doller store in china because a 4-5year old vehicle starts to fall apart, interior mainly... Headlight hosings are very hard material with improper clear coat which yellow quick and are nearly un repairable to get them looking 100 again... (hondas same problem but can make them look brand new in 30min)... Mechanically their they most of times have solid engines n run a good while with no problems...

    For me... All the cosmetic issiues are enough to push me away...

    I would go with a european... In following order mercedes, audi, volvo, volkswagen n wouldnt get a bmw unless brand new under warranty as too many electrical problems...

    "european cars are too expensive to fix"
    Most annoying myth... My question to anyone who sais it is "how many times have u fixed ur car in past 2 years?" reply usually with -american n japanese is 4-5 times....
    - Now how much did u spend with labor an what did u get?
    -ohh round 300-600 each time...
    -kool kool... I have fixed my 2004 mercedes c230 sport sedan with 167,000km once in the last to years which was lower control arms which cost me round $850 with labour... I got 2 year part n labour warranty, free Mini detail(wash, vac, dash wiped) when i picked my car up n was told i can swing by anytime n they will do it again for free as it was raining out when they did it...
    So as u can see yes in short term u dished out $300 on control arms i dishes out $850... Ur car broke down 4-5 times mine did once... At the end of the year i spent less money, time (time=money) plus for great service n warranty... Ill stick with a european even if its a used one.. Thnks...

    Oh n quality of drive, motor response, interior, everything from rwd power that pushes u in the seat to the soundproofing on the whole car is just amazing! (first time i noticed how good it was when i had my son in the car... He was freaking out crying and screaming.... I got out the car closed the door to go get him out... When i close the door couldnt hear him at all thought he stopped crying... I open the door hes screaming from top of his lungs lol i bursted out laughing and procseeded to open n closed the door as it was just like having a remote n hitting mute/unmute, showed the wife n she bursted out laughing too haha)

    Been there, done that, it's too impractical for me now.
