Ned Flanders is actually much older than he appears physically. I'm not surprised if @Tcoat is older than he says he is.

Flip a coin I guess.
Like I said I have no bias.
If you asked this 10 years ago there would have been a definitive Toyota answer but now that line is gone.

I like the new KDM cars like the optima but I wouldn't get them unless I have no choice. I would rather pick something american.

Another thing is I don't know why but I don't like how their engine sounds?........ might be weird to say this but I was just in a rental elantra, it's nice & comfy & all. Strangely enough I think corolla/civic sounds better.... alot better. >___> Ok maybe I'm pushing it.


(Then again I think our engine sounds like it's gonna fall apart @ times. lol)

I once heard an Optima (I think) with an exhaust. It sounded horrible. Also, the Forte Koup SX I drove always sounded like it had a mild knocking issue at idle.

Not to interrupt everyone's masterbation party, but one point has not been brought up. Once your car is paid off ... That is when the car starts repaying you back for your initial investment. The longer you can keep your zero debt car ... The better the investment.

That is .... Unless the motor blows.

I wouldn't call a car an investment, I'd say it's a toy But that's just me.
