mazda 6 drives really nice and good on gas, i had 1 as a rental, took the beeting rather well ide say.
consider a caddy...i just picked up a 03 cts absolutly MINT for 13,700..but i got a good deal..u just gotta look around and you can find one. you can get them in 5 speed and they are insurance friendly, im payin 150/month full coverage.

I really do not was a SUV/truck I'm a car guy all the way Im pretty sure I might get a 05 lancer, its cheap, its a import, it looks nice and issnt to bad on gas. I have actually looked into the maxima I'm yet to find one for a good price ither that or they are all automatic and like I said before this car will be standard. Let me no what u think about the lanzer n e horror stories bad experiences or testamonials !

i agree the lancer base is really base ....not much to it

lol my gf just asked me bout a 08 lancer...14,900 with 25km on it....sounds fishy 2 me but i checked and the price range for a 08 is bout 15-16grand...insane range with low km

yer under 20 and you have around 15 grand for yer first car...must b nice. my first car was $1400.
cheaper insurance means get a old man car, its not worth it to pay insane money per month for a economy car. sure u save a little on gas but yer insurance is double.

and old man cars are pimp lol

Lol thanks but I think I'll splerg I can't stand grandpa cars they are like driving boats around, I already have to deal with my g/f's ford Taurus, which goes from 0-60 in a month ...on a good day (with perfectly inflated tires) Like a said im looking around 15000 that is insurance friendly absoloutly no reference to sport and has aloe of stock torqe. Best car that sorts matches that is mazda 6 n a lancer ES if been helped quite a bit and now am thinking bout a volvo and pray it doesn't break down --- thoughts? Suggestions?? (NO GRANDPA CARS!)

WELL IF YOU DONT LIKE GRANDPA CARS LOL..jkz...but i love my caddy.

in all honisty look into the mazda 6..i had 1 as a rental for a month and really loved it. i found it amazing on gas, i thought i had the 6 cyl but was shocked when i popped the hood to see a 4cyl...had a lotta power for what it was.
with the volvo you can gget awd...cant remember if you wantedthat or not.
for around the 15 mark you can get a deacent 2wd volvo...awd is a little more $ or you are goin for somethin with a little higher km on it.look into the s40, and s60 i think the s80 will be 2 big for what you want, but its not much bigger. volvos are pritty reliable so i wouldnt worry 2 much but it will cost a little if you do have a problem. my buddy has a 04 and loves his i think its the s40. ive only seen it a couple times he just moved out west.
check out the mazda and the volvos. im not big on mitsubishi..but thats just me.
