The Rabbit replaced the Golf...In the US anyways. As I said, for looks go 3 doors; for practicality go 5 doors Edit* You people get cars dirt cheap over there O.O For me that car would cost almost a third more of the price you have to pay >-/ |

Hyundai Tiburon 2003 and newer with the V6.
Dodge SRT4 if your wanting speed VW Golf with either 1.8L Turbo, 2.0L Turbo or even the 1.9L TDI for 45mpg average [thumbup] Subaru WRX Those are the 4 cars that I would look at. WRX has AWD SRT4 has the SPEED Tibby has the looks and coupe body Golf has the fuel economy in the Diesel All these cars though can be modded to hell and back, so you can always have fun with them. EDIT: Oh damn. Thats an awesome looking ride. I love those Mazda 6's. I wouldn't mind owning a Speed 6. I had rather have a Speed 6 over an STi or Evo. Even with that V6, it is going to be one hell of a ride. Plus those Duratec motors are pretty strong themselves, so if you ever wanted to boost it, you easily could. |

Yeah man when I saw it I was like wow that's awesome. And it was right in my price range. They were selling it for $16,000 but we got them to come down to $15,000. I just have to wait till I get paid on Tuesday before I can get it. So I'm going to call them Monday and they'll detail it and all that then Tuesday I have myself my first nice car ..Eventually I probably will get some intake and maybe an exhaust system. |

I went out in May looking for a newer car and landed myself an '02 SE-R Spec V. I paid 7000 down and financed the rest (5500). That included the price of the car, the 36,000 mile extended warranty, and tags/taxes. This was at CarMax. So far they (and the car) have been nothing but golden. If I were to go out right now looking for a car, I would look at the Mazda Speed 3, Last time I checked with good credit and about $2500 down you can get one off the lot for right around $300/month if you go 60 months, And they are well they are sweet. If I went a bit cheaper I would look at the Mazda 3s and the Scion tC, The Rabbit is kind of nice but I would spring for the GTi, Also I might check out the Civic Si. Before you buy anything, do your research, check resale values, look for bargains, and remember to negotiate on the price, I suggest you always leave the lot when you found the car you are looking for, then come back the next day with a clear head and your research done. |

So I've had the same POS car since I started driving (when I was 16). I'm 21 now and my car is about to die, 94 Geo Prizm that isn't in the greatest of shape. Anyways I need to start looking for a new car soon, seeing as I've never bought a new car (well a car from the dealership) I'm not sure what to expect. I will be able to do about $300 a month so I think I need to keep my budget around 10-14k.
I really like the new lancer but I know that's not going to happen, haha. I like coupes best, but open to 4 doors. Any suggestions? [thumbup] |

honestly if I were you id get what ever I could afford to pay in full right now, and not make payments, why not just get a civic/accord ? those can be had for 5k easy and will be alot better than your geo was. My advice: 1. Don't buy a new car, for the love of God. 2. Don't waste your time with used car dealers. Go to CarMax if there is one in your area. They won't give you bullshit or force you into anything or lie to your face. They also make it mindlessly easy to do the buying/financing/etc. 2. I'd stay away from Mitsubishi right now, as they are not in the best of times. 4. Best bang for the buck for a 2 door sport coupe would be an '05 Scion tC. Also if you don't mind 4 doors, look for good Mazda3's (although they hold value really well and might be out of your range) I went out in May looking for a newer car and landed myself an '02 SE-R Spec V.

Im not sure what prices for cars are like in your area but i would recomend getting a Honda Civic, as their cheap, reliable and if you get a version that has VTEC they are also extremely quick too. Other good ones are Volkswagen Golfs? Ford Focus? once again im not sure what sort of cars you got over there or their prices, but they should be fairly similar.

what's wrong with making payments? you know some of us don't have money available to just drop on the spur of the moment to buy a car outright. |
