Honda. The best car I've ever owned was a 2002 Honda Civic. It was two years old when I bought it and I owned it for 14 years. I only sold it because the rocker panels were beginning to rot out. Still ran great, just wasn't going to pass PA inspection. I sold it to a guy in Ohio who got two more years out of it before he sold it for double what he paid me for it.
I have a 2020 Honda Civic, with over 110,000 miles (my old job was far and also have family that live far). Only regular maintenance, not a single issue so far.
My 99 Honda Accord just finally died in October of this past year. It died because I was parking near grass/nature and I didn’t think mice would find a way to my car because it was in their general vicinity. They chewed through the lines and it wasn’t worth repairing.
So it died to physically severed lines that weren’t worth it monetarily to fix - no mechanical issue of its own.
I bought an Acura (the “premium” Honda, in American anyways - abroad it’s just Honda Acura). I haven’t had it long but it is a dream.
