Reviews SummaryThe Volkswagen Cabriolet is often maligned as a “cheerleader’s car.” Cheerleaders must know a lot more about cars than the general public because these lightweight little convertibles are about the most fun you can have in the moderately-priced subcompact-car segment. VW had a reputation for building solid cabriolets from the time of the Beetle, and this car was a good extension of that history. Nimble, well-built, open-air cruising isn’t something 1987 was known for until this car came along. | |
Reviews SummaryIt’s true the 2023 Honda Accord doesn’t have all-wheel drive, a third-row seat, a big cargo area you can pack to the roof, or styling that suggests you live an adventurous lifestyle. If you want those things, spend thousands of dollars more for the Honda Pilot, which is less dynamic to drive and more expensive to own and operate. But, if you don’t need (or want) those things, consider the 11th generation 2023 Accord, which remains an excellent, if comparatively expensive, example of the traditional four-door family car. | |
