My friend gave his one- or two-year-old Honda Accord to his parents. In return, he got a Pontiac Bonneville (Driving excitement--yeah, right!). In the short term, his parents have spent more money maintaining the Accord than he has in maintaining the Bonneville (which is much older). His parents had to replace the compressor for the AC, and had to do something else that was expensive. In the long run, the Honda will be better because the Bonneville just isn't well engineered (the spark plugs have oil on them, which isn't a good sign).
Plus, some people take the car to the dealer for the most minute thing, while others (like me) fix most of the stuff themselves.
