Honestly I don't know when their quality kinda leveled out. Don't pay much attention to Hondas from pre-2005.

Honda is really only as good as they are because they develop via evolution rather than revolution like American companies

Who, I will grant you, have other issues as well

Anytime Honda does new shit, you get their 10-speed and CVT transmissions

Which they'll figure out, sure. Eventually.

And then hopefully keep for a decade or two because if they make anything truly new for a while it'll be that BS all over again

Also, yes. CX-5 over Equinox.

But then again, one of those is made by a company making money hand over fist. The other is made by a company considering selling themselves out because their profit margins are so low.

Brooism

I forgot that trick

98 that's very early

I was about 13 years old

keep him out

OUT OUT OUT

there's no time to explain

For the record regarding Japanese cars and reliability, consumer reports have consistently had the jap manufacturers around the top of their rankings for over a decade

While I don't really like the methodology behind a lot of reliability surveys, they are certainly pretty suggestive that Jap vehicles are solid bets on reliability

I miss old F1

I miss michael schumacher

Dearly

I miss him

like I miss my wife

but she is dead, and he is not

I'm sorry to hear that

Why she is dead, makes more sense than why Micheal isn't dead

two stories, pick one 😄

i love this article

the new supra is as much a supra as the mrs was an mr2

also I dunno when the automotive industry was supposed to have started using soy but a friend of mine has a 300zx and all its wiring has been eaten by rodents

lol

i never knew that can happen

it's not really a new thing as far as I'm aware, if you store vehicles in places with lots of rodents the electrics tend to get fucked
