Here's the thing..... I love my Acura, but I'd really like to get something with 4 doors. My fiance is here now, my kid is getting bigger..... and we'd like to have another kid in the future.
On the other side..... I'd like to "upgrade" from the performance aspect..... so I have a couple ideas in mind. I NEVER buy brand new.... always a couple years old, with low mileage.... and I want to stay "around" the $20,000 range. I'm thinking an 02-03 Impreza, Lancer, or a BMW 3 series..... but I'm looking for more options. ABSOLUTELY NO SUVs..... Comments on my 3 choices???? Suggestions for better options?? Keep in mind.... this is my "daily driver"... so reliability is an important factor..... which means...... no American Cars. Thanks all (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

my car is basically a mitsubishi... and I hate it... it's been in the shop a lot over the past 5 years, luckily I got the extended warrenty...
Subarus are fun, and safe cars... you may even like the outback... sportier than it looks. and very practical can't go wrong with a BMW either, if you can afford it... they get pricey quick. other choices: dodge magnum, acura TL type S, nissan altima SE-R |
