    looking to buy a brand new car , what would you reccomend ?

    well ive had my fair share of used beaters. now i want something brand new , 05 or 06.

    looking for something cheap to run and cheap to buy. i know of a few

    hyundai accent 2dr
    chevy cavieler
    ford focus
    pontiac sunfire
    chevy cobalt

    looking for something under 10 thousand. ive got 2 jobs so i know making payments wont be a problem and ive got almost perfect credit.

    what car would you buy , or reccomend ?


    edit: im leaning towards the 2dr cobalt becuase its a 5spd.

      I'd seriously recommend buying something a few years old. It takes a lot of the value out of the car, so you'll be able to buy something a little nicer.

      I bought an '02 Focus with 36k about a year and a half ago for 7k, and I haven't had any problems with it. 30+mpg, decently quick, good storage.

      God....I guess I was probably returning videotapes.

        Why on earth would you want to buy the worst new cars possible when its not even a good idea to buy used anyway?

        Edit: Oh wait... its him. Well, Hyundai has really gotten better over the past few years, and their warranties are always good.

          Buying a brand new car is a huge waste of money.

          Look for something a year or two used, chances are it will be a good deal cheaper.

            I'd say get a Scion xB.

            But that's just me.

              Go find yourself a good Program car like a Nissan Sentra or a Toyota Corolla or something.

                      anything bmw. It will bury you funding wise, but hey, they are beasts and their stuff is just off the chain. The new beamers have a sensor where if you let off the gas quickly, it gets the brakes ready and views it as a defensive maneuver. High tech if you ask me

                      lol
                      didnt bother to read your whole post. Sorry
                      its preference at that point. Gain the new car smell, lose your wallet...

                          In my truck the brakes are ready all the time. I just have to push the pedal. Call me old fashioned, but that's how I like my vehicle to run.

                            no fords, when they go out of business you have no warranty

                              ya go dodge, get a ram. Well honestly, id rather get something like a year or 2 old. You'll still have most of the factory warranty left on it, and really you shouldnt have any problems for a long time still.


                              I just want this stuff gone, super low prices
