2007 KIA Optima

$16,000, 35 MPG, very quiet, pretty quick for a 3 cylinder, and its huge. 4 doors huge drunk area. My mom owns one if ur wondering Razz.

Now if you want a truck I wouldnt recommend the luxory one but the stand one is about $30,000 2007 chevy avalanch. My dad has the luxory edition but its like $46,000 but its gotta all the features u need. But the standard mainly isnt much different. It doesnt have a sun roof, leather interior, or gps. But they ride like a suburban if u ever drove one but handle like a truck. Has 320 hp.

Although I am on a budget, there is no way I'm going from a Nitrous boosted V8 to a 3 cylinder go-cart lol Smile

oh you know what other car i forgot to mention, the mitsu galant (the newer model, of the one i got) brand new for about 26k i believe. i have the 2003 model which looks a bit different then the new ones. what can i tell you, good acceleration if you get the v6, and overall i dont have too many complaints about it. except my window regulator busted, but if you are buying it new then its all under warranty. for me i bought mine used with only 49000km on it, back in 2005 and bought extended warranty Big Grin. they are not the most roomy cars but its not a small sedan either. oh one other thing i forgot to mention, mitu has the best warranty on the market. atleast here in canada, so look at that aswell. if a company gives you a longer warranty tells you that they are more confident in their product...

in any case make sure to let us know what you end up going with

...

V6 = 6 cylinders.

No wonder why you suggested a pre-2008 (concept-like vehicles are coming out in '08+) Kia.


FUCK

I'd go for European cars anyway, considering the continuous growing gasoline prices. European cars usually use less gasoline (for the simple fact we pay it 1-1,5 € per liter due to very high taxes on it).

Thats like what? a 40k -60k car? Sweetness but I doubt the Blazer will be laying down that kinda cash.

I've been test driving cars myself and going from a Mercury Cougar V8 LX with all power options is a bizatch too. I'm going to be spending about 20,000 with 8,000 down but a car under 20,000 is lack luster on the options.

So far I've completely decided on the Mercury Milan, all I'm doing is waiting for the 2008 model to be released and Ill be all set.

(2007 model)

Blazer "should" be riding awesome cars.

In the near future, he should rent one of these.

well i would go for the nissan. reasons; import= high resale value, they have the new timing belts that never have to be replaced only readjusted, great horsepower/gasmilage combo, the new style transmission that eliminates the drag (or whatever you call it) between shifting gears. i love the new look of the altima... since it looks close to maxima and i love maximas.

a little expensive by reliable if you ask me...

1. I get a discount on Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep because I work for Cisco, and we get discounts on certain things. I also get a discount on Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Mazda, Volvo, Land Rover and Jaguar vehicles at the "X-Plan price", whatever that is Smile

2. Please don't suggest I buy a car that cannot be purchased in the US.

3. Please stop suggesting that I buy a car that costs 60K+ Razz

Blazer, ride a car you truly like that isn't for mission airs but if it's too cheap then you might be stuck with that "car" for forever.

It's hard to "earn" that money once again, so really think about it/ Smile

Sir Kane has taste....ahh the M6, an excellent example of German engineering, Bravo! Since that is definatly not what you are looking for I would support your nomination of

2008 Nissan Altima Coupe

I have a Nissan Altima and can only imagine that the Coupe must that much hotter. It drives so well I can't believe it does for how much I paid for it. Great on gas and doesn't require premium, as compared to the Maxima.

Go Japanese, my last domestic didn't make it past 200k, this one is already well past 300k.
