I'm thinking of buying a 2004 Honda Civic with 90k miles for $6000. How are the repairs on this civic?
I know the engine can last over 200000 miles or more but what about other repairs. I'm looking for a car that I can rely on and not spend too much time in the shop. My other option is a 2010 Hyundai Elentera with 43000 miles for $9000. I know the civic has a better resale value, but I'm looking for a car that I can keep the longest with the least repairs. I generally keep a car until I can't use it any longer or it gets to expensive to own.
Don't' buy anything w/o reading CR.

- Which to get 2004 buick regal ls with 121000 miles or 2004 Hyundai sonata lx v6 with 130000 miles? I'm asking for advice from ppl who have own these 2 cars. I needed a car thats going to last a long time and need to be on budget and please don't tell me go to Honda or Toyota or Nissan. I'm interested in one of these cars.
- Is it worth it to trade a 2003 Toyota Corolla almost 130k miles for a 2004+ Acura TL 90k-110k miles? This is my moms old car and she got the Honda Pilot, she gave it her old car to me as my first car, but I want to trade it for a nicer car but used Acura are expensive and every time I asked the sellers to trade my Corolla and says no. Do you think Acura owners don't like Toyota?
- What is a great reliable used car for under 6000? I had a Honda civic but now it's total loss due to accident. This car never gave me any problems, only thing I ever change was oil and tires. Now I'm looking for a different car. Too many people mock honda cars, and I don't understand because they are good looking, cheap and last a really long time. I'm into small light weight, great on gas cars. Anything really… Any suggestion is great, so I can get some ideas and do my research.
