What are Some Good, Recent, and Available Dumb Cars?
What are Some Good, Recent, and Available Dumb Cars?
I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla. She's been my trusty steed for the last 14 years and is in good working order. I recognize she won't last forever, and if, god forbid (mostly for her) I get in an accident, I will need to get a new car. So what dumb cars do you drive, and what would you replace them with?

How dumb do you need it? Old used BMWs are supprisingly cheap right now, and BMW was pretty late to adopt "smart" car technology. They also have a reputation for not breaking. For these reasons, I am considering buying one for my first car (uni!), but it sounds like it could work for you, too.
Where did you hear about a reputation for durability? I'm familiar with the phrase "if you can't afford two BMWs you can't afford one" because of how hard it is to maintain them
I've had my 2011 335i for 8 years and it's not really any worse than your average car
People repeating this stuff keeps used bmw prices low though which is good
They also have a reputation for not breaking.
I suppose if you go back to the ‘80s models or earlier this might be true. Otherwise, my first exhibit to the contrary would be plastic water pumps and plastic timing chain guides.
