Went to go look at hyundai accent, vw golf and nissan versa today. Probably won't end up with any of those, she really wants the hyundai veloster turbo now.

I drove it, it's a fun little car, styling is somewhere between "meh" and "not bad". She drove the accent and hated it, tried the veloster and loved how much sportier is felt. She liked the golf but the veloster is a better deal, and she's all about the 5/100k warranty.

Without being a euphoric an EG/EK honda interior is like 100000000x better than mk4 jetta/golf in terms of longevity, rattles, etc. This is not even for debate, vw interior is utter shit. Might as well drive on a milk crate wrapped in burlap. No joke, cushioning is shit, leather/pleather/feather/wahteverthefuckeather is all cracked, nikraz please. None of my civics ever fell apart like a pos VW

Your Civics were tin cans, lined with hard plastic wrapped around lawnmower engines.

I have zero issue admitting that the mk4 jetta/golf structurally feel significantly sturdier...but this is like a 4age review of "feelz" on sturdiness which is irrelevant to real life application. While an EG/EK civic may not *feel* as sturdy they were built so much better (and are plenty sturdy for real life), and i can't emphasize or quantify *how much better* they are than a piece of shit vw of an era a decade ahead. I'd like to give the VW more credit, but I can't, and I consider myself a pretty fair person when it comes to honest reviews. TO me it's laughable that I can take a 1992 hatchback now 22 years later and put it up against a 12 year old dub and walk away feeling completely appalled by the vw in every imaginable way, AND i gave it a 10 year advantage, like wtf.

btw i just remembered half of my MIL radio buttons have fallen off randomly as well...those are regular maintenance as well right ? such quality

Ive got 75,000kms on my Veloster Turbo now and its been rock solid. Ive had the steering wheel replaced cause the pleather was cracking and one of the strut mounts needed to be tightened, (both under warranty) otherwise its been problem free.

The weird 3rd door is super practical, the hatch holds a ton of stuff, its great in the snow and gets 7.5-8L/100km mostly city and with my lead foot. Gets down into the mid 6's when the wife commutes on the highway. Stereo, navi, BT all work great, comfy seats, big moonroof, rear view camera, keyless, etc. The newer ones even have a E-Diff electronic LSD now.

Only real complaints are that the big wheels and low pro tires can make for a rough ride on some streets. Im already considering buying an updated '16 when they come out.

I used CCC on both this car and my Genesis and save about $1500 off the MSRP.

lel wut? really? VW interior is that bad? wow. the only interior issue I have in my 7th gen civic is the rocking drivers seat, but i need to fix it before I drock myself to sleep while driving. Despite of what euphoric says about the 7th gen civic, but my civic has been rock solid for a 2003 car.

Oh yeah, it was a stupid fast lil fucker. But if you want to compare the reliability factor of the peon and the civic. I'll gladly take my civic over the peon anyday of the week.

Oh how I dont miss the crack in the coolant hoses behind the turbo, melted catalytic converters, fused clutch, burnt tires, boost leaks, fuel pump failures, and FUCK hand crank rear windows

Also the famous driver side seat buckle problem. SRS light is always on and my buckle doesn't like to lock the seatbelt when I buckle. I have to wiggle it 10+ times before it locked itself in place

I called the dealer for a quote on a new buckle. $299+HST

Fuck Honda

I really think it's the car that Vas MIL owns or EUE. Go on Vortex, I never seen people complain about the interior and buttons falling out of the radio.

Well mind you, I upgraded to the Blaupunkt aftermarket deck 3 months after I bought the car. But other than the driver's door handle is peeling due to wear and tear, I really don't have much complaint of stuffs falling out/breaking

Until the day I see majority of Mazda 3/5 that are not a rust bucket, I will never buy a Mazda.

Have you seen how badly the rust on the 05+ Mazda 3 and the early model Mazda 5?
It's pathetic!

Wouldn't this 'unlimited mile warranty' "resolve" that?

It's always been sad to see rear-quarter rust on those Mazdas... Brings back all those visions of 5th/6th gen Civics...

I am noticing a common trend among VW owners, lol apologists.

I guess coming from Hondas my whole life I didn't have to deal with breaking transmissions, interiors falling apart, and broken springs by the time the car hit 160k which has full service history from greenbelt vw.

vw bros scheduled maintenance:

Year 1: replace all bulbs + coil packs monthly

Year 2: Year 1 scheduled maintenance plus replace transmission, also frequency of coil pack replacement will increase because it's scheduled maintenance (every 2 weeks)

Year 3: Year 1 + Year 2 maint, car is almost ready for the scrap yard, if you want to give it a kick at the can, throw in a motor since that routine maintenance is Year 4 (if you make it to that point).

lel such EUE many reliability

O1M, awful transmission, no denying that should have bought the O2J 5spd. Coilpacks? Updated design ones are absolutely fine. Broken springs? Shit happens.

My buddies 2002 Accord shifts like the tranny is about to drop out from the bottom of the car Such JDM, much sweetness, so tuna!

Listening to someone bitch about a car he doesn't drive and only attempts to maintain is priceless.

lel wut? really? VW interior is that bad? wow. the only interior issue I have in my 7th gen civic is the rocking drivers seat, but i need to fix it before I drock myself to sleep while driving. Despite of what euphoric says about the 7th gen civic, but my civic has been rock solid for a 2003 car.


Also the famous driver side seat buckle problem. SRS light is always on and my buckle doesn't like to lock the seatbelt when I buckle. I have to wiggle it 10+ times before it locked itself in place

I called the dealer for a quote on a new buckle. $299+HST

Fuck Honda


My buckle was replaced under warranty by Honda Canada. Honda paid for the part and I paid .5 hour of labour. My car was well out of warranty. So not sure why fuck honda?

I found out honda canada was able to help through the big help of internet - have you met internet? internet is such a big help and usually comes through with information i need!

Ya its a little trollish. Have read the details.



Any mkiv I've seen that's actual been used has a terrible interior. Mostly worn out and a lot of broken bits. That soft touch shit sucks.
Same in my wagon. Has soft touch around the parking brake area and it's all scratched and worn out. You look at it and it scratches itself.
The rest of mine seems to be holding up ok though ...
