I don't know about your experiences with Honda products, but you have to remember these car are for daily drives and to save fuel. Although it may seem these are not the best cars on the market, they are the most reliable cars on the market for the last twenty something years.

I had a 2009 Honda Civic that I traded for a 2011 Honda CRZ.. It wasn't till the government bailed out the big three that they realized that they had to make a better car or truck to sell. People don't buy a vehicle anymore just on the fact it's American made. They buy them for being well built and fuel efficient. A lot of people don't realize that all the new cars and trucks made in America, are using a lot of parts from Japan to make their engines more reliable and gas efficient.

The Ford Focus, though assembled in America, is really just a Mazda 3 design. The car is more Japanese than American.
