Hey Scotty so I like Toyota but I also know Honda is reliable. I was trying to figure out if I wanted to buy a brand new Corolla or a brand Honda civic with the 2.0 engine. I like the corollas but I really like the looks better on the Honda civic. I Guess I’m struggling with the Honda Civic lasting as long as the Toyota Corolla….. also it seems from what I have seen that the corollas CVT is better than the civics CVT because the Corolla has the launch gear…. Just wondering your thoughts??
did you test drive them?
For reliability recommendations, I would say Corolla.
For my personal preference, I prefer Civic. If you can get a naturally aspirated Civic that would be amazing.

Comparing 2L engines only, a properly maintained Civic could last as long as the Corolla. Either car with a naturally aspirated 2L engine would check 'a reliability box'. @mmj 's suggestion is to test drive each car. It's great suggestion because you drive a car from behind the wheel. If a car doesn't please you from this 'driving position', then why would you buy that car?
