My friend had a Honda Odyssey, it was a good car from what I know, but they never really praised anything about it. I guess they didn't have much to praise =\ Talking about Hyundai, Jackjimturkey... My friend owned a Hyundai about two years ago, and they complained about every little detail... Then they bought a Honda, and complained about it being unexciting and creaky. The first time I saw a Hyundai I thought it was a copy of Honda, or the other way around... note, extremely similar badging and name.

Were these new cars? I've owned three Hondas, two Civics and an Odyssey, all new. The Civics were/are pretty flawless: ~35 MPG, oil change every 3K miles, maintenance every 15K miles. I hand one for 11 years and it never left me stranded. The Ody was another story. The electric doors occasionally got 'possessed'; interior bits broke off, squeaked or rattled; A 'check engine' light that two dealerships couldn't figure out; a transmission that thumped like a ton of bricks whenever it got cold;and finally a broken engine mount at 50K miles for no explicable reason. Overall, Honda builds exellent car but unfortunately clunkers will still get through. Jackjimturkey:

I've never had any problems with them. As for expanding in China, don't you guys read the news? China's a great place to do business lately. I’ve owned Hondas ever since I started driving.
