Those big old rear-drive Fords from back then were pretty reliable. But a Honda Civic is also pretty reliable, and will slurp less gas.
An 18 year old American car will cost a lot of money to keep running. Whatever you do, pay cash for whatever you buy and keep saving money for the next car.
I wouldn't buy a car with more than 100,000 miles on it and a 1991 model probably exceeds that limit. Between those two, I would prefer the Honda Civic.
No contest, buy the Honda. The old Mercury will need regular repairs which won't be cheap. Of course the Honda might not be much better if it's old, has lots of miles, hasn't been maintained properly, or has been wrecked in the past.
My son's first car was an 1987 Ford Crown Victoria. He struggled to learn to drive and I wanted some metal wrapped around him to help keep him safe. One of the worst days for a parent is when they get their license and go solo. I paced around the front yard, praying, and straining to hear any sirens. *sigh*
- When you buy/lease a brand new car, are you able to add things/customize it at the dealer? In 2014 my friend financed a base model Jetta brand new red. However his model came with fog lights and LED turn signals but had hub caps. However, my other friend had a 2014 Jetta as well and had the middle trim and had no fog lights or LED turn signals but had aluminum alloy rims. Can you add things like that to a car? I know at Honda if I wanted Fog lights on the middle trim they would ask me to upgrade entirely to the highest trim which i don't need, I just want the fog lights
- Muffler Deleting a stock 08 grand prix good or bad? I have a stock 3.8 V6 Grand Prix and want it to sound like a stronger car and not a Honda would a muffler delete be good or will I have to do more like a resonator delete too. And if I were to do the muffler delete what would be the cheapest most effective way to do it. I'm on a very tight budget so preferably DIY.
- Would a 4 Cylinder Car in Sport Mode be able to accelerate faster than a V6 car in ECO mode? Take the Honda CRV Turbo at 190 horse power 4 cylinder in Sport Mode vs the Oddysey with 285 Horsepower on ECO with a V6.
- On average how much horsepower would a short-ram intake give my 1991 honda civic hatchback? (engine: D15b7)? Just wondering how much horsepower a short-ram intake would give my civic, I know it depends on the quality of the intake i'm just wanting an estimate.
