My current car is old. I had a lot of repairs done on it recently. If I get a new car, I don’t want features. Lane assist, backup camera, DUI Camera, telemetry, auto breaking or other frankly silly features. Call me grumpy, but I find modern cars very distracting.
Can I ask a dealership to disable these at purchase? Is there a car that works best for being private besides just older cars?
I drive very little in a year. No, I can’t ride a bike.
Build quality is lower. Parts don’t last as long, and driving dynamics are worse. Also, paint and exterior finishes are prerty trash.
I’ve owned and driven Hondas from the 80s, 90s, 00s, and 10s, and its an easy call to say the 90s were peak. They drove nicely, were cheap to maintain, and had excellent durability/longevity.
They are still decent cars, but not excellent as they once were. Toyota/Lexus are much better in the last 20 years.
One guys opinion anyway.
