Best Pre-Owned Cars to Buy for Summer 2017

If you plan to take any road trips this summer, you’re going to want a comfortable, reliable car that can rack up the miles without breaking a sweat in the summer sun. Some of the most highly rated vehicles for reliability are Honda models, making them a great choice if you’re buying used.

Used cars are a great option for many reasons. Not only do you save some cash, but your selected vehicle has already been road-tested by several consumers, so you’ll know exactly what to expect in terms of reliability and any common issues the model has experienced throughout the years. Better yet, you can avoid the models with those known problems.

These are our picks for the best pre-owned cars to buy for summer 2017. To find out more, contact Norm Reeves Honda Superstore Cerritos to speak with one of our automotive experts.

Honda Civic: Zip Around Town

Looking for something small and sporty to zip around in this summer? The Civic is a perfect option, with most models featuring a powerful, peppy engine and great fuel efficiency. You’ll love the Civic’s stylish, clean design and quiet ride, as well as its spacious seats. The Civic is a classic in the compact car class, and is especially popular when it comes to buying used due to its impressive reliability ratings. We suggest looking for a model from 2007 or later, so you’ll have access to modern features during your drives around Cerritos, Los Angeles, and Long Beach.

Honda Accord: Cross-Country Road Trip

Heading out on a long road trip this summer? You’ll want a car with enough cargo space for your luggage, comfortable seats for the long ride, and the ability to handle a long trip reliably. The Honda Accord can drive for miles and miles without a hitch, and you’ll find its interior to be spacious and comfortable. We’d recommend a model from 2007 or later, which will give you a strong and powerful engine as well as efficient fuel economy. Grab your friends and hit the road!

Honda CR-V: Trek to the Beach

If you’re heading to the beach for some camping, the CR-V is your ideal option. There’s plenty of cargo space to fill with your gear, and this SUV has the confidence and capability to drive over sand without a problem. Fill the car with all your friends, or fold down the back seats to make room for more camping supplies—don’t forget the marshmallows!

Honda Ridgeline: Bring the Boat

The Honda Ridgeline may have taken a hiatus between the 2014 and 2017 models, but all years of this pickup truck have great performance and are known for their outstanding reliability. If you need to tow your boat to the water this summer, the Ridgeline is a fantastic option. For reference, the 2017 Ridgeline can tow up to 5,000 pounds of cargo when properly equipped, so hook up your boat or ATV and head out for a weekend of summer fun.
