It really all depends on how well the owner takes care of the vehicle. Routine and preventative maintenance is the best thing you can do for a car. I've seen American cars with 200+ miles running just fine, I've seen American cars with 12k miles with blown struts all around and falling apart (yes my friends 07-08 cobalt and to think that my lil cousin just bought an 09 SS) The exact same applies to foreign cars, I dont care what you say about German engineering, Japanese, Swedish, or any other fine automotive nation.. if someone doesnt take care of the car and abuses, it will be a pile just like a cobalt.

^Greg took care of his 5.5th gen religiously, but it burned oil. The manufacture has alot to do with "reliability" as well.

We have all kinds of glitches on new models all the time, but Honda takes the time and issues TSBs with upgraded fixed parts promptly and stands behind their products....
Aside for the tranny issues, TL-S from 02-03 was a killer car that made Maxima look bad. Sure it had just 3.2L but its engine will last 500K+ miles and it had plenty of power to run mid 14s. Acura finally got the trannies right and they are lasting... GM quality isn't up, it might be in some areas.... but I just had a 08 Tahoe in @ work, ran out of warranty with 51K miles on it. Rod knock ;) You tell me about GM and reliability. Caddy is just a overpriced Chebby nothing more. I remember when the Seville STS came out, everyone was like oooo yeah that shit will kill all luxury performance cars ! Now look at those "300HP Northstar" engines, they barely run !

i though GM had a 6 year 60k warranty?
gm quality is a LOT higher and it has improved a ton..Doesnt mean its up to par with other cars... i have a 07 impala with 96k miles and haven't had any problems with it at all (other than the blower motor going out) when my maxima had 95k i had to replace the entire suspension.. car is quiet smooth and has decent power and gets 420 miles out of a tank of gas, plus the interior is great... all cars have problems my pop's 2000 focus for example he beats on it and yea its got some rust here and there but, after 120k miles and 10 years the only problem we have had with it was the alternator went out.. but anywayz... i think i would rock the Cadillac, it tested great at the track, it compared with the M5 on the track but was like what 50k less? BMW's bring a bad image to the driver. (Andy your cool) |
