But I’ll probably be in the market in 3-4 years for a new car and currently they have a good reputation… or at least better than GM/domestic. I worked at Enterprise so I drove a lot of low to midrange cars. A Chevy Impala with 35,000 miles and a Toyota Camry with 35,000 miles was like night and day. > > And I didn’t mention Hyundai at all in above post. However, they’re one of the first to offer the 100,000 mi warranty, my girlfriend and her parents have Hyundais and they are staying together fine. It’s good bang for the buck. its all in ur perspective. if you go into it thinking the camry is gonna be better, thats most likely the conclusion you will come to. Why do GM cars have a bad rep? u ask a machanic and they will most likely say that imports break just as often as american. It usually costs more to fix an import. that bad rep thing is just one of those things that starts like a high school rumor… girls gave some one a bj…by the time its gets around the school the rumor is she got gang banged by the basketball team. People also overeact 10 fold when their car breaks " oh my God my car is a piece of shit because my alternator went bad" cars break…north east and great lakes region is not nice to cars. my mechanic has been fixing cars since 1972… import wise the only cars that he was impressed by was a few customers had volvos that were very good and another customer with a mid 90’s lexus. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/wish-ia-worked-at-gm-right-now/195438)._
