Toyota Camry Honda Accord (wait for a new one) Nissan Altima (wait a few months for the new one) Ford Fusion (wait a few months for the new one) Chevy Malibu Hyundai Sonata Kia Optima VW Passat
If you have desire to drive even a remotely fun car, avoid the Camry. Don't be dissuaded by Kia and Hyundai's former reputations. |

Seems to have better interior styling than past years. Overall look is a little sedate for my taste, especially compared to that cool looking 2013 Fusion, which is a very similar car. |

Date: May 26th, 2012 9:23 PM Author: Ungodly Sound Barrier Mood I've had two Volkswagens over the years and they constantly needed repair work. The headlights would burn out, the wipers broke, and the climate control stopped working after a few months. I was always at the dealership filling out paperwork. I drive a Honda these days and haven't had any problems. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1957344&forum_id=2#20772737) |

It's too bad because they could be an appealing alternative to the Japanese cars. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1957344&forum_id=2#20773044) |

An article I remembered from Time mag. I remembered the "grim faces" of VW owners who had to take their car back to the dealer too many times. |
