      @@allenelder4675 I've had an '91 Civic (4 gen) as my first car, apart from rust and typical things like brake pads nothing had to be done to this car. Now I have R5 turbocharged Lancia and well... it's not a bad car at all, but mine had a very rough life and I swore to bring it back to its prime and get a photo with it placed in front of the Fiat factory in Turin, just for fun.

      @@allenelder4675 well, I'm from Poland and this particular Lancia model was used by our authorities a lot evan 20 to 15 years ago. Mine served in parliament, I wasn't hunting for such but since it was one of the few with the engine I wanted - I got it even though it was pretty ruined. It's an endless money pit, if I was buying with a reason I'd go for a Honda or Toyota. But I forgot to take the reason with me, so... ;)
      As for the old Civic, to this day I turn my head when I hear D16 engine, and I'm never wrong. Some good memories were made, it was really fun car to drive, and so dang reliable despite it's age.

      Odyssey 1999-2004, Honda Accord 1998-2005, Honda Civics 2001-2005. Those cars have bad automatic transmissions. I heard that some Pilot 2003-2004 as well. I have a Pilot 2004 and so far transmission is not slipping but it acts like sometimes in the morning do not want to change gears. It looks like is a sensor. After it gets warm it works fine. I had a civic 2002 and my transmission broke in 156,000 miles. Had to installed another one. Also have a Honda Civic 2014 with CVT. So far is all good it has 46,000 miles. With Honda youvhave to change the oil every 40 or 50k. Those automatic transmissions are more soft than Toyotas.

One of my tpms sensors just went out in a tire too but overall she's been great to me. No major issues and i got the manual too. I had a 91 Integra with the b18 before that and have loved Honda since. I do also have 2 vehicles with Chrysler engines which i also enjoy but the Honda is solid and most reliable. Mine is the base model and does not have the Bluetooth. Been thinking of upgrading to one of those Android screens, no sunroof either if you don't have the si. Also in my model the dash lights are blue and not red.

      @@sdushdiu I researched every list I could find (because I admit that "most reliable" is subjective and "cheapest" is also variable due to different costs of different things such as insurance in different locations) and the only list that I found that mentioned the Corolla , had it at #11, in which the same exact list had the Prius at #1.
      The Prius is simply cheaper, and generally more reliable. Obviously it saves money on gas. There is no automatic transmission to wear out (The unique gear-drive transmission lasts longer than conventional auto trans, and much longer than standard CVT's), nor clutch to wear out. The brake pads are used much less often, requiring replacement intervals extraordinarily long in most instances. The engine runs less often, so spark plugs last much longer, even oil changes can be extended with less impact.
      They also have higher resale value than Corolla.
      The battery pack generally lasts 150k-300k miles, or 10-15 years, and can currently be replaced for around $2K-3K.
      Even with that, Prius still shows a net savings over it's life compared to a Corolla.

The prius engine runs less, specifically idling, so those wear parts need to be changed less often. there is no alternator.
      Why did you give me a list of costs for hybrid batteries, some of which we're not even talking about? I could copy and paste a similar list from somewhere else with lower prices.
      And can you give me the source of the annual maintenance costs you posted?
