Consumer Reports - Honda ranks tops in "Making the Best Cars"

Just wanted to post up the link to this article from Consumer Reports that states what many of us have known for a long time.

I think, overall, this is true. The fit and finish of all Honda's vehicles seems incredibly good, and their engines are known for lasting forever.*

My build quality is really poor (rattles, rattles, everywhere) and the seats are wearing already, and started almost at 5,000 miles. Still, I'd say for all their cars, overall, you can't contest that ranking, even if one or two models suffer from some quality qualms.

*May potentially exclude 8th generation Honda Civics in all iterations from time-to-time.

Lol it now out in magazine form... and on the most/fewest mpg column, the editor missed a HUGE formatting error, and put the Honda Civic EX on the side of the lowest - tying it with the PT Cruiser Turbo @ 20mpg instead of the page before @ 32 with the fit....


I wonder if Honda will sue... might hurt sales


Might get some super-pro americans think geez.. dumb japanese car isn't worth the hype.
