X3 or 4 on the Honda or Toyota. Honda's are a bit more complex and tend to have more issues after 200,000 miles. The 4 cyl Toyotas typically pass 300,000 without issue. Also, they have non-interference timing belts, unlike the Hondas. Found my brother a mint '98 Camry with 69k on the clock for 5 grand....he put 25k miles on it in the first year, had zero problems, and averaged 34 mpg. (4 cyl). Have worked on a ton of these cars, and all they every need is brake pads every 90k and oil changes. Had a Camry come into work years back for a front alignment, and I assumed the car had about 50k on the clock due to its mechanical condition.....backing it off the rack, noticed it had 365,000 miles on the clock. Can't beat a lowly 4 cyl Toyota for value.
