advice on buying new car

[redrope]

SUVs are just slightly modified minivans. Dont deny it because its a proven fact. Everyone only likes them now because they are a trend.

Anyways, get an Audi A4. Im getting one this summer and I couldnt be happier.

congrats on the a4...but SUVs are much different than minivans. theres just something great about having such a big presence on the road. i may sound like an idiot, but i like SUVs

[redrope]

Oh, I dont hate them at all, but they are minivans slightly cosmetically modified. Its a fact. I dont have a problem with them at all tho.

thats a good point to compare them to minivans, if not check out the montero sports ads :D

[hoyablue]

the A4 is AWESOME. I have one, and LOVE it=D.

[Antipop]

the A4 is an exceptional car, second only to my A6 :D Those Audis, if serviced right, will last you FOREVER, and they are very high performance. <rant>And semi-off topic, I'm getting a '76 MG B roadster to restore! I'm excited. </rant>

Well, I have a Jeep ... if anything it's a slightly modified station wagon. But in reality, it's a Jeep.

Anyway, things to look for are miles per gallon, engine type (an inline 6 is better than a V-6, a V-8 is bigger but will usually mean worse MPG). Also, check the tires, see if they're run flats or sport tires, or if they're just stock junk. Outside of those three things, everything else should be fairly obvious.

im looking to get a silver 2002 celica gt (5 speed stick)...used...ive got one on hold from an auction with only 9,000 miles and probably only around $11k USD after bargaining :)

Well, I dont know what you mean by stuck junks, but I baught 3 VW's and they all had Michelin and now Pirelli tires. Those aint junks. Very great tires!

just make sure you know about the cars you are looking into, it would be horrible to be ripped off. the car that i like most right now are the brand new Mitsubishi Eclipses...or else a 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT w/ Twin Turbo.

yeah, the VR-4 versions of the Mitsubishi 3000GT's are very good cars, i like them better than new Eclipse's by the way

[Arpit]

okay...it's between

Accord LX V6 240 HP

Camry ES V6 210 HP

Wolkswagen Passat V6 (stick) 190 HP

any thoughts??...and these cars are all around $30,000 CDN...how much do you think I can bargain?...a rough idea...maybe about $1500~2000?

[Schmoove]

Get a german car, those are the best.
