It's a car poll!

[E.intheC]

Trying to narrow things down a bit.. My goal is to test drive some cars this weekend.

All the above cars are at about the same price (If it's used, I've found a few cars priced very similar to the new car range).

I drive about 3600 miles round trip per year to work, so I imagine 10,000 miles/year is more than enough for a 'mileage budget'. Looking for a fun car that looks decent and has some reliability. I've done tons of reading, posting, and have some similar riding experience.... Looking for a car that's "right" for my age bracket (I'm 27 now but want the car to 'fit' when I turn 32 as I plan to have the car that long).

Enough blabbering. :tongue1: What would you choose, considering my situation?

Thanks in advance.

Don't get BMW or VW, especially used...your wallet is gonna hurt for maintenance and repairs.

or rather......make sure they come with the warranty

Karman, I've heard that, and it's a concern of mine for sure.. but mostly everything else I've read/heard says the 3 series is better than average in terms of reliability. Other BMW models (and older than 2006) are a different story.

I also tend to treat my cars well, and don't keep them past 100K miles. I just get sick of them and want something new :lol2:

all but the honda are gonna cost you an arm and a leg if any repairs are needed, not excluding oil changes as most of those use synthetic oil so be prepared for $100 + oil changes alone. the honda will hold it's value better then any of the above as well, and dont believe anything yo uread as far as longevity in what magizine's say, trust me. and definately if you purchase used make sure you get a extended warranty, if you decide to go new lmk i have connections at honda, toyota, nissan, chevy, acura, hyandia
