I've had to bring my Toyota more times for work than my father has his Hyundai....he's had it 3 times as long as I've had my truck, if not more.
General Thinking about getting a new (used) car
- Thread starter Wild
- Start date
First two cars are basically the same car. Kia will probably be a touch "sportier" than the Genesis but same same.
Either way you're going to get a lot of car for the money.
The Lexus will be super reliable. Really quiet. Nice features. And be boring as fuck just like a Camry/Lexus is supposed to be.
I don't like Honda/Acura even though they're good cars. They just feel very cheap to me when I drive them. My girl has one of the fully loaded Civics and it's really good... But dear God does it force me to drive my cars everywhere because of how much I hate the feel of the steering in a Honda.
If you're generally concerned about resale value then you can't go wrong with the Lexus. I love my SUV.
But I'm probably swapping it and my Audi for the new Genesis SUV that's coming out next year.
They're so damn nice. They tend to include more safety features, the leather and seats are every bit as plush... So I say 1 or 3 unless you just find a great price on one of the others.

Why do you want him to break down so much?
And how many of them have been to replace an engine?
None, just like the Genesis.
That's range rovers.
Are you a fucken librarian? Life exists once. Why get all that boring bullshit you just mentioned? FFS I thought
@Sex Chicken was bad in his lesbo wagon. We are talking used cars here with a good budget. The list is endless but you are recommending he buys the most boring shit of all time. That the kinda shit you get as a rental car. Fuck that
Why don't the British make computers?
They can't figure out how to make them leak oil.
Why do you speak English?
Oh yea because a city conquered the world...
and then was nice enough to let you have it back, dipshit.
Hyundai Should Get Out With the Nu, Their Ticking Time-Bomb of an Engine
The 1.8L Nu engine has been ticking owners off with its constant ticks, connecting rod knocks, predispostion to engine bearing failure and problems with oil sludge. These problems all happen within Hyundai's 10-year / 100,000 mile warranty, but the automaker is allegedly placing blame on owner...
Also, techs at Hyundai expect to be replacing an engine per week.
Why are you talking about motors that aren't in any of the vehicles he's looking at?Hyundai Should Get Out With the Nu, Their Ticking Time-Bomb of an Engine

With as much driving as I do, I’ll get a V6 for full efficiency. The 6 cylinder in the Genesis isn’t exactly great on gas (18/26) and the V8 is even worse (15/23).
I bet he could get the Lexus for cheaper than a similar Camry. It's why we went with a GX for my wife instead of a 4runner.
That's fair I guess. I wonder what the cost difference would be in fuel per year.
I want a bigger sedan. Something similar in size up the BMW5 series without being German.
Damn, I get that kind of mileage in my F150 with the ecoboost. 17/18 mixed driving, 22/23 highway.
If I drive 24k miles per year. At average 25 mpg in the V6, that’s 960 gallons a year. Average 19 mpg in the V8 that’s 1265 gallons a year. At say $2 per gallon, that’s $610 a year ($50 per month) difference.
