Should I trade my 2013 Honda Civic EX with a 2011 Mercedes C300?

I have a 2013 Honda Civic Ex with only 6000 KM on it.
I bought it brand new for around $24000.
but now I regret not following my heart and not buying the Mercedes C300.
Would you trade in your new 2013 Honda with a used 2010/2011 Mercedes C300 with around 50,000 KM on it?

Why and why not?

I have the means to buy a BMW or Mercedes but every person I have talked to that has owned one says how expensive the repair bills are. I'm sticking with my Honda products. They seldom need repairs and when they do it doesn't cost me a fortune.

Only you can decide what is best for you. But if you are truly unhappy with the Honda, it's worth considering.

Just be aware that you will take a strong depreciation hit on that Honda if you trade it in now.

No. Personally because I know the Honda was new and I know what's been don't to it. If I purchased a Mercedes used I may be in the long run for expensive repairs. And it has more miles/kms than my car. In the end it's your choice but I'd keep the Honda. Plus it will last forever.

I once did this years ago. I had a brand new Cavalier in 2003. The next year I traded it for a 2002 Cadillac CTS. It was in the shop more than I drove the darn thing.

Only if my auto mechanic doesn't charge for frequent repairs.

I can't find the Honda CBR 125 2011 fairings anywhere and it doesn't look nice anymore with alot of holes and cracks but I have a shop near me that is selling for the CBR 250 2011 fairings and both bikes look exactly the same but I don't want to waste alot of money if it doesn't fot

  • Should I trade a Honda civic for a jeep liberty? I turn sixteen in a month and got a '93 Honda Civic. I'm considering trading it for a '06 Jeep Liberty. Does anyone know if the jeeps are good cars or not? Some of the reviews I saw said it wasn't but my honda needs a new sunroof, paint job, and other repairs. Do you think it would be a good trade?
  • Are 2012/2013 Mercedes Benz C-Class good cars? So i'm 17 and i've had a 2000 honda civic since i was 15 1/2. It was my starter car and my parents think i'm ready for my real car now. Weve been looking at cars and a benz was not a forst choice but i drove a 2013 c350 and i fell in love but i keep hearing its not reliable. But i can't find any honest reviews on them. So if you have a c class from this year can you please tell me about yours? Is ot reliable? Expensive to fix? What problems have you had?
