In market for a new car...wondering if l should go for a new honda fully loaded or go for a pre owned BMW/ Acura with say 30K-40K on it, as the price would be comparable with the new honda

Thanks!

l am not a bmw person so no comment for or against. l personally own a 06 acura tsx, bought new 11/06. It has almost 60,000 problem free miles. My mom owns a 08 honda accord v-6. It is not something l would want- l love manual transmission.

The bmw & the acura would be more performance oriented than the honda if that is what u r looking for. l prefer the bmw as l own a 2002 325i. l bought it with 54000 miles on it & it was like brand new. l have driven my mother-in-law is 2002 acura tl & though that it handled well & had good acceleration but the bmw turns heads more than the acura & honda. maintenance on the bmw is costly though. if u cant afford an $80 oil change at ur local oil change shop, then forget it.
if u want to impress, get great acceleration, get a comfortable ride, get descent gas mileage, great brakes & handling, get the beemer!

it depends on if the bmw still has a warranty. once it runs up prices for parts and services can get very expensive. and recently bmw has been known for not lasting as long as they used too. acura and honda are the same company. they both are very reliable. acura and bmw are more about luxury though. its still about whether you want a new or used car.
