I don't think the mods had anything to do with it.

says every idiot that has one and ends up bringing it into the local dealer saying my (fill in part or system here) stopped working. i did all the oil changes. and then when asked if they did any other maintenance to the car, their response is... no, i didn't. i work for Acura (upper range of Honda) and when i was in service, i heard that crap all the time.

it was an exageration... come on now. Compared to what has to be done on a mustang.

well the sales guys need to stop saying it...when i was buying my chicks car every honda sales man said the same thing. Ended up buying a corolla and havent had any problems as long as the basic maintenance is done

i know what you were saying. it's just flawed logic. that is the common misconception with hondas. and salesman are idiots. at least most of them are anyway. the one thing anyone in the svc dept at any dealer knows is that a salesman will promise the moon and leave the svc dept to deliver the stars. but i know that you were exagerating. unfortunately there are people out there that really do think that way.

yeah they actually lost the sale on the honda civic because of their lying. I know they are relaible but they tell you stuff like and i quote " You dont have to do anything on this car for the first 100k except change the oil" I was like WTF are you serious. and then my chick wants it and I am stuck trying to explain thats a lie because NO BRAKES, TIRES, etc will last 100k miles. So I ended up buying her a corolla

now try to explain that to a person who just drop anywhere from 35-50k to buy the amazing maintenance free car when they come in for just an oil change and it's time for more. tis a bitch. sad thing is that people actually believe that BS.

...i saw this sexy honda civic the other day with a sweet body kit and a big muffler ... hahaha

but seriously. hondas last forever if you do the basic maintenance. thats why if i ever have to get a "normal" car ill probably end up with a civic. they last forever and they can be found for cheap

Honda makes a great car for a DD but once again dollar for dollar a BIG 3 V8 will outperform it hands down . The biggest plus to buying a Honda is you can pretty much guarantee it will hold it value better than just about any mid priced passenger car on the market including most Mustangs .

Ok, this thread has pretty much turned to crap. The OP asked for it to be closed several pages back. So down it goes.
