I'm deciding on whether to get a 2016-2017 Civic Sedan or Cruze?
My dad is not a fan of American cars (Btw we live in Canada). Our 1992 Plymouth Voyager broke down many times with the transmission, and our 2002 Ford Windstar was pretty decent, but it had its fair share of mechanical failures.
We have a 2007 Versa which has some problems, 2010 Odyssey which has no problems (We barely use it only 40K Km, and a 2017 rogue 20 000 KM).
I like the design of the Civic. I think the daytime running lights looks really serious and such. Looks unique. But I wanted to be unique and get a Chevy Cruze because it is American. Not many asian people drive American.
Plus I don't really like Japanese cars because I want to support North America and not Japan.
But in retrospect, I want reliability. I want to know the car I drive will not break down. I don't want to replace air condition condensers, brake light switch etc…
Which would you get?
I also plan on getting the middle model of each car which ever I get. The highest model the touring is too much for me.
Cruze is not as good as the imports. Id stick with Honda, Toyota, Mazda or Hyundai.
Chevy Cruze is a hunk-o-junk.
Your whole idea about driving an American vs Asian car is pretty dumb since most Toyota's and Honda's are made in North America. You have to understand that modern GM vehicles just aren't made to last. The ecotech engine line has always had some pretty serious mechanical issues. Get the Civic and you won't be disappointed.
Buy a Canadian car then.
Get the Civic.
Civic
You are completely clueless About cars Brands and their production. The brand Name has absolutely Nothing to do with where the car is built. Many japanese brand cars are built in the US and many american brand cars are built in other countries. Honda / Acura is actually one of the most american production focused companies: https://www.cars.com/american-made-index/
Besides you are buying used anyways?
Get the Honda Civic with the 2.0 base engine it's much more reliable than the Cruze (but stay away from the unreliable turbo engines).
- Toyota corolla 2016 or Use honda Civic? I know they both reliable car but people say buy american cars cause if you buy overseas cars like honda or toyota their parts will be More expensive but i don't want to buy a ford or a chevy cause they are not reliable but most people say if you take care of any car including fords it will be ok
- What would win, a 2017 Subaru WRX STI or a 2017 Ford Mustang 3.7 V6 if they raced I have a bet with a friend that the STI would win and he thinks the mustang would, I don't need statistics like "the mustang has 300hp and the STI has 305" and yes I'm aware the driver makes a huge difference being standard vehicles, thanks for the answers
- Will some 2017 model of cars show up at the upcoming 2016 auto shows.even as early as February? When I was at the DC Auto Show back in February of 2011, I saw some 2012 models including the Mazda 5, Ford Focus, Honda Civic, and Hyundai Veloster. So, will the upcoming 2016 Auto Show have some 2017 models even as early as February? a) yes b) no When you answer, can you give me an explanation?
- Why does 2017 ford focus 1.0L has less mpg than 2017 honda civic? It has tiny engine as geo metro like it supposed to be 50 mpg? The manual focus has 30 city 40 hwy mpg which is average for an 4 cylinder subcompact, while the automatic 1.5L civic makes 2 gained mpg difference.
