Currently, Jetta and RSX are in my mind. Tell me what you like.

Looking to buy a car for my girl friend at around 8k-9K. Any recommendation? - Shan H 2008-06-06 13:08:21 (117 views)

A car that is forgiving of neglectful maintenance practices does NOT equate to a reliable one. - pentosinjunky 2008-06-07 05:03:23 (51 views)

I posted the same thread last march - firstarsbrnwhite 2008-06-06 22:26:54 (54 views)

Reliable - Honda or Toyota... not exciting but they are reliable. German cars require work - kgardnez 2008-06-06 14:35:47 (58 views)

Wife's jetta was terrible. Interior build quality was horrible (interior rattles squeeks...) - Pelican Head 2008-06-06 13:27:25 (76 views)

Oh man, my gf's smells like crayon too... drives me nuts... - AEBlessed (1.8G) 2008-06-06 14:51:43 (78 views)

And I thought it smelled like salmon? - A400 2008-06-09 12:41:47 (30 views)

back in the day my mom had a lemon Jetta. Was made in Brazil though so never expected much from it.. - velosouljah 2008-06-06 15:57:11 (51 views)

There is a TSB out for the crayon smell. - GTIVR62801 2008-06-06 14:55:50 (82 views)

Used RSX are all shitted up. I traded my pristine '06 for $14k on my Accord Coupe. I say Volvo S70- - Audi Junkie 2008-06-06 13:15:16 (106 views)

Any more specific reasons for S70? Never thought about this car. Thanks! - Shan H 2008-06-06 13:18:07 (62 views)

My nephew got a fat red 1998 V70. It has a lot going for it mechanically, but is also a good design. - Audi Junkie 2008-06-06 13:29:36 (75 views)

Drop me an email pelicana4forsale@gmail.com I'll give you the low down... - Pelican Head 2008-06-06 13:12:54 (67 views)

Your car is zuper-hot. - Audi Junkie 2008-06-06 13:18:33 (64 views)

Pelican Head's car is for sale, $8250... - Nate (ETKA+Scumbag) 2008-06-06 13:10:08 (73 views)

Looking for a more reliable car than our Audis. So any other suggestions? - Shan H 2008-06-06 13:11:58 (64 views)

Is a Jetta really that much better? - Nate (ETKA+Scumbag) 2008-06-06 13:26:32 (57 views)

At least half the price to maintain it. - Shan H 2008-06-06 13:29:08 (58 views)

If you want a pretty much maintenance-free VW, buy one with a VR6. - GTIVR62801 2008-06-06 15:01:46 (66 views)

honda accord - Jon-1.8t 2008-06-06 13:13:25 (64 views)

2nd. I had a 93 and when that thing broke, it still worked...it was unbelievably reliable ;p - beergoggles 2008-06-06 13:28:20 (65 views)

The Accord is a beast in that you can't kill it; I tried to kill my wife's '96 for years and failed - velosouljah 2008-06-06 18:51:34 (51 views)
