I would advice you to go for pointiac because it more fuel economical and low to maintain. Honda is also a good product but wouldn’t advice you to go for Honda product.

bro i use 2008 crv and i also have a brother that has 2007 Pontiac vibe, if u want fuel economy go for Pontiac vibe but if u want durability go for CRV, in one year i can count how many times hav been to mechanic, and if u considering security issues hope u know that almost all honda cars use sensors and it makes it hard to steal, again honda makes one of the best engines in the automotive industry, with this submission of mine i believe u can make ur decisions.

Does your brother with the Pontiac visit the mechanic often? That would be a more balanced submission.

he doesn't but i can bet his car is more prone to criminals than mine, my question to the OP, is he buying thief magnate or buying peace of mind?

I don't think 4m can buy toks of any of these cars. For me , I would go for Sonata just to have a feel of Hyundai. I have driven both toyota and Honda

I was one of those stereotypes who felt Toyota was all in all untill just recently when I began to understand the scam. Sold my Toyota recently and bought a 2013 CR V. Not a single regret. Best car I've ever owned so far.

Don't misunderstand me, Toyota's make very good cars, but Honda's are equally magnificent.... maybe even more

its good like that because its the reason honda and it parts are cheap. It benefits the honda users.

Toyota is over priced down there. The same reason they talk bad about v6.

Lol, he wouldn’t because he doesn’t have any concrete reason besides the shallow minded belief that “Honda pulls legs”. Op we have two model years of this CRV, a 2010 and a 2013, I’d tell you it’s the best runabout vehicle you could get. The R20a is a durable, high performing engine without the oil burn that the KSeries suffers, so make sure you get the 2.4l over the 2.0l. The suspension is solid and you get better ground clearance with the CRV. Parts are cheaper on the vibe and its tiny engine makes it more fuel efficient. A quick tip; test drive both cars personally before you pick either.

Exactly, a colleague bought a 2017 accord touring for 8.7m from this woman who insisted on a Camry after her husband the accord. Try getting a 2014 Camry for that price.

You know say pocket no easy.
