YAUCST: Yet Another Used Car Suggestion Thread

[Pastore]

Must be...

- 2006
- < $15,000 out the door
- 4 door sedan or 5 door hatch
- Decent looking
- Decently quick

Cars I've been looking at are...

Mazda3
Mazda6
Hyundai Sonata
Ford Fusion
Subaru Impreza (not a fan of the styling on the non-WRX models)

Let me know what cars I'm leaving out of this list, and what are your picks given my criteria?

Up! I thought you guys liked these threads?

gonna be tough for < $15,000

I guess the Sonata could be had for about that.


Actually, I would pick up a 07 Fit. I think their base price is $14,500. Kinda ugly though and it doesn't handle hills that well.

If you can get a Mazda3 for <$15k OTD I'd run with that.

Are we talking NEW vehicles?

Used, as per the thread title. All of the cars I listed I can get for < $15k out the door. This is used with 20k - 30k miles.

Agreed, $15,000 out the door is going to be next to impossible. Bump that to $18,000 and you might have more options.

Mz6 if you can find one for that cheap. I really like the hatchback version.

How about my favorite used-car recommendation: Chevy Malibu Maxx?

Pontiac Vibe or Toyota Matrix, depending on styling/features. Same drivetrain (Toyota) and interior (GM) for both, exterior different only.
