In the market for a new car. Suggestions?

[kal-el-8]

Sup NT, well I have 6000 and am in the market for a new car.

I have a scion tc now, which is worth around 6000-7000 depending on if i sell private or trade in.

So that puts me at 12000-13000.

My mom thinks I should use that as a down payment and get a newer 2010+ model.

I'm starting to think the same since I need a reliable car.

Thinking about a BMW 328i 2010 for 17000, and do a 4000 in payments.

Or Jetta SLE for 15000 rest on payments.

Or a honda accord coupe 2011 for 16000. and do the rest on payments

Open to any suggestions besides american cars.

Not a fan at all.

thanks for suggestions.

In B4 get da hemi.

What year would that be in my price range?

Just get a Toyota or Honda. Maintenance on the Bimmer will hurt your pocket once out of warranty. This was why I ditched my 335. Loved the car, but became too problematic too quickly after warranty expired.

My mom advised the same thing.

Not a fan of the camry, would rather do the Accord coupe since it looks much sportier (sp?)

Cop the accord coupe b.

anybody have insight on a Jetta GLI?

its a bit more in price, but from the looks and reviews i've read, i'm thinking its a good car.

U said reliable. Stick with Japanese. Countless horror stories on BMW out of warranty. Accord or maybe a genesis if u can find one in your price range

 

[heliumclinton]

I'd cop the Accord coupe or even the Altima coupe

Besides reliable, what are you currently driving and what do you actually need in a newer car? Reliability is all in the maintenance history of the vehicle. A simple $80 pre-purchase inspection should tell you if the vehicle has been well maintained or not. I had a 1999 Toyota I just got rid of with 175,000 miles on it and didn't have a single problem because it was well maintained.

Driving a scion tc, have had to change the tires 2x this year. And it's a gas guzzler. And the last straw was last week going up a hill i completely lost control and almost had an accident. Tires again; had to change my back left tire :x

Basically I just don't trust it anymore, plus it feels like I'm driving a tractor. The ride is terrible

What do I need? A gas saver, and trust in it. I had a Honda accord previously an 02; I had no worries about it failing me.

 

[asianplayer]

The accord coupe should be a good fit

Sats blah blah blah......


Does it have a striking exterior?....












The optima does......

If you're looking for a fun car and space isn't an issue, there's the Scion FRS. Sticker Price is around high 25's. It has a Subaru 2.0 boxer engine and is RWD. There's a decent amount of aftermarket parts for the car. It only has 200 hp though and torque is ok. I've heard even though the car isn't that fast it is still really fun to drive.
