    Who thinks Honda should have kept the 2.0T in the Accord as an option?

    My first car was a 95 Accord and I drove it to around 300k miles and parked it running. I then got the 2013 9th Gen Civic Si I still drive in 2018 and I really like the car. It's been super reliable and all I've really needed to do is basic maintenance so far. It's a K24 with around 200HP for anyone that doesn't know. I do have some rust which is a drag, but it starts every time I turn the key whether it's 110 degrees out or -10. It's been through snow storms and even a hurricane, but looking at what Honda makes right now, I don't see a single car I'd rather drive. If I had to make a list, I'd ask for more power (250HP should do it), better upholstery, Car Play/Android Auto, and better blind spot visibility. That's not a huge list for someone that's been driving a car for five years.

    i think they started to go down when they switched to macpherson strut front suspension instead of the multi-link front (when the rsx came in); that was kind of the beginning of the end

    Nobody makes reliable cars any more. Not even Toyota. Sheep say to just buy Toyota, but they have no idea what they are talking about. Also, I'm an old school Hyundai fan, but they can't build an engine any more. There's even a lifetime warranty on their 2.4 Theta II - some people are on their 3rd free engine. It's insane. These are some of the worse times in the auto industry. IMO Mazda might make the most reliable vehicles today - if you can put up with their firm rides and road noise.

    I have two CRV's both with the 2.5 engines. I'm keeping both b/c 1.5 are crap. They added
    1.5 and put a turbo on it add's nothing but expence for parta and labor to install. I've talked
    to mechanics who said that many returned to be repaired. Why, b/c you have to drive them
    alittle differantly. Start of easy for the first few miles to get the oil up to the turbo and on top
    of that before shutting off let it run to "cool down'. All because they think of added gas mileage, just plain BS b/c you get no more than a few more miles per gallon and headaches
    down the road. A new CRV....nope not untill they go back to what really works and lasts
    longer. They have to stand up to this stupid EPA BS and say "we can't add anymore cost
    to our vehicle line without cost and shutdowns and layoffs.
