So my girlfriend's mom wants to buy her a car for around $15k-$17k. I told her to get some used car but there are a lot of choices to be made. What are you guys thinking. Haha I know asking on Acurazine I'll be flooded with with Acura cars [ Must be Automatic]

 

New Mazda3

 

I was thinking that too but isn't it going to come out in 2010?

 

Debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19, 2008

So my guess Spring of 09 they should be out?

Or she can get some great deals on the current mazda3.

 

The current 3 is a great little car. If i were in the market for a car with the given price range, that'd be my first look.

Otherwise, a Civic is another excellent choice as well.

 

Fit?

 

Mazda 3 is pretty nice. I like the fit too but since it gets good mileage

 

just bought my wife a 09 Scion TC for around 18k. She loves it! Sporty, good price, good MPG.

 

buy my car. Wait, I have MT.

 

i could get her a new LX 4 cylinder Accord for that price but i get employee discount any given time.

but if you go into a dealership that's "hungry" to move cars. you can get them down to close to my price. all i gotta do is present my ID work badge and dealers just groan cause they got a price sheet they gotta go off of.

 

that's the ticket!!!

 

Ok I'll say it.. 1st gen TSX.

 

Legacy 2.5i..? It has AWD, but not real powerful. Or a Legacy GT (yep, I'm pimpin Subaru)

 

Fit FTW!

 

Fit is cool... but what da hell is a Honda Jazz? I saw one the other day,

OR a used Mini Cooper

 

used g35c in auto!! lol

 

new:
mazda3
civic

used:
previous gen accord
1g tsx if you can find one with decent mileage

 

haha I wouldn't mind if she got a used g35 auto .

 

isnt a jazz a jdm fit? somone may of done some badge swapping

 

If I'm not mistaken Jazz is the JDM version of FIT.

And this would be my choice too, I had a Scion tC and that was a great car too

 

Yes, it's the non- US version. The UK and Japan used that name for a while. Here in J-land, the Fit is the name (Feet-Oh to pronounce in Japanese)

 

You can def find a low mileage 05 G35x AWD for that price....I would go that route, they're nice cars and good in all weather.

 

new: civic lx-s, fit, mazda 3, corolla

pre-owned: rsx, tsx, can't think of others right now

??

 

Civic?
1st Gen TSX?
Mazda 3?


I'd personally try to check out 1st gen TSX's, but I have no idea why I would say that.

 

Mazda 3

 

She pretty much wants the g35, but she only wants a coupe... While I'm telling her to get a sedan
I'm loving the new Mazda 3/6

Thanks for everyone's help and opinion's
