Believe it or not, Hyundai (I think) if you're talking that level of
market. Certainly Nissan.

If you're dead-set on a Honda, buy Acura--they still seem to care at
that level (also see Infiniti). But Honda has turned into a big bag of
shit over the last ten years, and what they're turning out today is
pitiful.

Yes, I have some inside information on that.

I must say that the current offerings by Honda don't do much for me --
Crosstour for example & the Accord coupe is quite ugly. I currently drive
an 06 I4 Accord coupe and have had very good service out of it. If I were to
replace it I suppose Hyundai or Nissan (altima) would be the alternatives.

My 1996 Honda Civic CX Hatchback is sitting outside in the
apartment's parking lot. It has three hundred thousand miles on it.

Aside from having to put a quart of oil in it every time I
fill up, it is running just fine. I keep it around as a 'chores and
errands' car.

I just purchased a 2010 Honda Fit sports model. I expect it
to do that well, too.

I've had two Chevy's (one used, one new) and two Ford
Mustangs. American cars and dealers have caused me a lot of pain.

I'm on my third Honda and I'm always been very pleased.

I've come to the conclusion that you can't go wrong with
Honda.
