A Toyota Corolla is the most reliable car u can buy, low on maintenance and good on gas.<br><b>References : </b><br> To be honest i would go with Toyota, their cars are extremely reliable.

A better bet, imo would be a Hyundai Elantra, which is rated a used car best bet by Edmunds yet can be had for several thousand dollars less than a Civic or Corolla of comparable year & condition, at least in my neck of the woods. Camry is a nice car & is roomier than a Civic or Corolla which might serve you better due to your height. But I am a little leery because they seem to have a problem w/ oil gelling & causing engine failure if they weren't properly maintained (this is documented on a number of web sites, yet still generally ignored by the mainstream media). Many Accords can be found in the used car market, but again the name 'Honda' seems to be enough to demand a premium price. Maintenance is a key in used cars. If you can find a car that has been cared for, one that has been properly maintained & has its service records intact, that is probably more important than the make & model, despite what Honda & Toyota would want you to think.<br><b>References : </b><br> I find Civics & Corollas in general to be overpriced in the used car market.
