both r reliable but toyota parts r cheaper n easier 2 find.

but doesn't honda parts last longer?

Good point. Honda parts more expensive, but dont break easily. Toyota excellent car too but kinda boring hey?

not really. toyota built its whole reputation on durablity n most importantly aftersales backup so if its reliability toyota is th car but i personally like th honda.

how much more expensive we talkin generally speakin? Double that of toyota parts?

yeah i think close 2 double but i 4got 2 mention dat u shud stay away from 20v toyota models. th rest of lineup is excellent. another 2 i know r problematic r hilux 3000d n kzte models.

lookin at the 160i, hw r they on performance?

Toy is bettre

its a gud car. 180i is better wid more torque at low revs. 130 is also gud n only gets sluggish wen seating 3 or more ppl n gud around town.

find owners of th specific models from honda n toyota n speak 2 them. also speak 2 mechanics from their dealerships 2 get an idea of their weaknesses n running costs etc.
