Would I be better off buying a used Geo Metro or a Nissan Sentra?

Question

I want something dependable that's good on gas and not too costly to repair. I mean, they are both foreign cars...

Answer 1

Geo Metros are foreign? Last I checked Geo was part of GM.

Nissan Sentras aren't as good on gas as a Metro but they are more reliable as far as I know and they are faster if you care.

The best option would be a Honda Civic. They get better gas mileage and are reliable. The 1992-1995 VX Hatchback can get 48/55 mpg according to the EPA.

Answer 2

Get the Sentra more spacious and not a proclaimed piece of junk tlike the Geo (it has a bad reputation...)

Answer 3

Geo Metro is a part of Chevrolet. <---- AMERICAN. Deeedeededee

I'd choose a Nissan Sentra, just because you wouldn't look as retarded driving down the street. But the Geo's are decent, they break easy though, so I don't know. I'd go with the Sentra.

Answer 4

Actually, the Geo was a joint venture between GM and Suzuki...

According to a certain consumer's research organization that accepts no advertising and doesn't like their name to be used without permission, some good used picks are:

05 Dodge Neon

07 Ford Focus

03 Honda Accord

04 Honda Civic

06 Hyundai Elantra and Sonata (4 cyl)

06 Kia Optima

05-06 Mazda B series

05 Nissan Altima (4 cyl)

03 Toyota Celica

In my personal experience, it is pretty expensive to repair Mazdas and Toyotas, but they don't need repairs very often!
