it could be more reliable but wear and tear parts is still going to cost more

if 65K is your max you probably should get Alza, brand new with warranty
have to spare at least 5K for Civic

better save a little bit more for a new City, but you probably not interested since you didnt consider used City


logic wise Alza, ikut hati Civic

u probably cry at C segment stuck in traffic jam if you compare like that


for car average user, usually fifth year onward many parts need to replace
those stretching themselves will have hard time, imagine parts replacement every 1-2 month if unlucky
