I don't understand this, but to each his own. Accords are some of the most reliable and longest lasting cars out there. The Japs at Honda and Toyota are legit.

Buy the LX instead of the Land Cruiser. Same performance and more bang for your buck. I’m very disappointed in the lack of attention Toyota is giving to the Land Cruiser.

Toyota's bread and butter is the rav4 now. It's crazy how many of them they sell. I think its the highest selling car in the US.

I don’t enjoy driving Hondas and the new Accords are kind of ugly. They’re great cars I just personally would never buy one.

My current vehicle is 11 years at 165,000 miles. I'm hoping it makes it another 6 months at at that time I'm going to look for a two or three year old Accord or Camry at that point.

Do what now? How in the hell is the $100 G Lx more bang for buck over the $80G Landcruiser? Looks are subjective but the LC is the ultimate with no options...major components are designed to last 25 years.

The question has missing info. It implies that this is a primary transportation.
The cayman and corvette are toys.
If you're working for a living then the Honda is tbe best choice. It has to be used preferably with 150k miles or more.
If you're wealthy you can buy the new accord but nothing else.
If you have hundreds of millions in networth, the cayman or corvette are great.
If you're a billionaire then maybe lambo or Ferrari.

It's almost an identical vehicle.

But the front end on the LC looks way better than the Lexus

I'd probably get a cheap one since I'd have roll over from this one going into that one. And I'd be pissed that I am still paying for a car that died before it was paid off.

nothing new is worth even 30% of the asking price and will be a POS in 5 years

pick something you like before computers ran everything and have it restored "frame off" like new again. will cost you about $35-$40k and it will be better then anything you could buy and it will last you a good 20 or so more years

The cheapest, most reliable one I could find. I don't believe in spending too much on cars. I'd rather keep making upgrades to my home since I spend far more time there.

Nah because you'll be dead. Crumple zones and airbags are real things.
