Need advice on a new car to lease

Well, he is not totally incorrect. If someone sees an Indian dude with a Toyota or Honda, they probably will think "typical cheapskate Indian" and likewise with the luxury cars, "they got loads of money rolling in". Is it perhaps silly? Yes. But are other people judgmental idiots(especially those who hypocritically pat themselves for being "non-judgemental" when excusing the immoral folk of the world)? Yes they are. Even I am deliberately willing to hate on the Japanese and once I have a decent income, never purchase one ever again because of shit ergonomics.

What does it matter what other people think? You pick the best car you can afford that fits your needs, seems easy enough. For me the best auto maker is going to be Japanese, specifically Toyota. They're the most reliable for the money, and they fit me well. I will get a Lexus soon, and I couldn't give the faintest care in the world what other people think about a young person getting a luxury vehicle like that.

I also don't understand what would make him a cheapskate in a Honda or Toyota, when both cost a lot more in the used market than a Chevy.

Ask the OP that question, not me. I actually don't give a fuck. But no more Japanese for me once I make enough coin to buy my own new car. I'm not taking a chance on shit ergonomics ever again.

Now used vehicles, I care even less and would even buy Japanese, but I need to find a way to sit in that car for an hour to make sure the seats are good, and I doubt sellers are going to be that accommodating.

Does it matter what other people think? What a headache if you go through this world worrying what other people think you drive.

I used to think like this. Just in general through it does matter what people think maybe it's not the defining thing but it's there. It's like guys with a shit ton of tattoos. It doesn't really matter and shouldnt matter what people think but our society is biased and people will care.

Mazda 6 hits all of your marks except the V6.

I know you ruled it out immediately, but I'd be looking at the Accord and Fusion if a V6 is a hard requirement.

Am I looking for something that doesn't exist?
