87 Nissan Sentra
97 Acura Integra
03 Toyota Echo HB
05 VW Jetta
05 Acura MDX
07 Vw GTI
07 Acura RDX
09 Acura MDX (wife's current)
10 Toyota Tundra (my current)
Would never buy another VW/Audi product again. Both VW had issues under warranty and dealer couldn't keep the engine lights from coming on for long with ECM issues. Blown tranny on Wife's Jetta as well and my friend's Jetta from same year didn't fair much better. Luckily my friend had warranty for one more week before his warranty was out. The GTI started having issues and was back and forth to the dealer at the 2 year point as well.
The Toyotas and Acuras have been very reliable so far.

I come from a family that typically owns a car for at least a decade if not longer. Drove for quite a few years in the family's 2nd vehicle, 1981 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Dad bought it from a businessman who owned it brand new for a year. (This was back before the concept of leasing came into its own.) Then the family's 3rd vehicle, 1992 Mercury Sable bought several years old.
Both proved to be excellently reliable. The Olds died because dad was too cheap to both put oil in it and to fix the oil leak it eventually developed. I was driving when she finally died after we used her for 16 years. The Mercury once left me stranded at work after an unexpected double-shift. But that turned out to be a good thing since it was now 8am and the repair shops were open. Dad told mom that the battery was good for several more months. It wasn't. Can't blame the car for that.
Ones I've personally owned:
1998 Ford Escort
2009 Mazda 6 V6
After investing $1,000 into my Ford to get all the little things and the brakes fixed, some idiot literally a week later side swiped my car while I was in it. Miracle I wasn't dead or badly hurt. The idiot in the red mini-van noticed he was about to drive past his exit on the expressway. Instead of doing the intelligent thing by simply getting off at the next exit which literally would have taken him 5 miles out of his way, he decided to flick on his turn-signal while at the same time cutting across two lanes of traffic at high speed.
The Mazda is incredible. Acceleration was the single biggest weakness in my Ford. That has definitely been taken care of in my Mazda. I waited nearly a year before getting her. Driving the Mercury all that time. When you get something that you plan on having for about 10 years, you take your time to find the right vehicle.
