Was honda ever an economy model?

What they said. Lots.

Hondas are excellent, and hold their value exceptionally well. 'Course, with the way they last, why’d you want to sell it? I remember my parents '79 bronze Honda Civic hatchback - damn thing ran well into the nineties. I drove my own '90 Prelude to well over 200,000 miles before it was traded. You can’t beat 'em.

Hope my new Mazda Protege 5 lasts as long - bought it 'cause it fit my 6’6" spouse better than the Civic (and 'cuz I liked it better too). But that’s just between you and me.
