Mine blew up at 90,000. Bought it for $6500, spent close to $10k just keeping it running, then got less than $2k when I traded it in.

I wouldn't even consider buying a Japanese car.

Thats not fair to pick one company that is Japanese and hate them all. Honda and Toyota have the longest lasting cars in the world and that is a fact. I don't like ether of those company's put it doesn't change the fact that if you want cars that won't brake you buy a Japanese car or a German. But I do love american muscle. I also really like jeeps

Like I wrote in the beginning of this thread, any car will last forever if it is taken care of.

Well first off the whole Toyota thing was blown way out of proportion. Most those cases where found to be false. But yes they have had some problems. But remember last year when Honda's stock crashed and hurt the economy? no wait i mean Chevy..... Honda stock went up and the toyota Camry and the Honda civic are one of the only two cars to hold there value. You can keep saying that if u tke good care of a car it will last forever but the point is that almost all Honda's and all Toyota's out last american cars.
