Cavalier Vs. Honda

Okay. I currently have a 94cavalier 2.2l its in good running conditition, a few problems, but only has 40k miles on it.

now. i got offered a 98( i believe) Honda Accord, it looks nicer then my cav, but it has 100k miles, from what i understand it is in also good running condition.

i cant afford to insure both of them, which one would you choose to have?

Re: Cavalier Vs. Honda

accord. newer, has newer tech in it, plus despite the mileage, the interior is bound to be better, plus you probly still have corrosion warrantee on the honda.

Re: Cavalier Vs. Honda

Reasonably, the Honda. But I would personally go with the Cavy because, well, I dont like Hondas

Re: Cavalier Vs. Honda

I would keep the Cavy. It's not that I don't LIKE Hondas, I do, but everybody and their mom has a Honda. The Honda has an ass load of aftermarket stuff available compared to our 90-94 2.2, unfortunatly.

But resale value, as mentioned above, is the main reason I would get the Honda. However parts are cheaper for the cavy. It's a toss up for me...

oh, and the Accord is tits compared to the Civic and Prelude, even though I think some years the Prelude looked sweet, but anyway, the Accord has better praise than the Civic and Prelude.

Re: Cavalier Vs. Honda

plus 100,000 miles is nothing on a honda. many of them go way past 200,000 with no problems. defintely made to last. But if you want to be origianl stay with the cav. Not as many out there.

Re: Cavalier Vs. Honda

well i mean. imo 40k miles on a 11 year old cavi... probably equates to 100k on a accord.

... Then you have some money for painting and modding the cavi!

You could easily talk him down and get more for the Honda!
