Help me find a new used car.

I have made a few post lately about me wanting to get a new used car. I just cant seem to make up my mind on what I want lol. At first I wanted a BMW 318i or Jetta, but I now that I thought about it I dont really want a car that is gonna rape my wallet if it brakes down. I have been considering Nissan Sentra Se-R's, but some people say they have reliablity issues, anyone know about that? I have also been looking at Eclipses, and Hyundai Tiburons, but Im kinda want a sporty sedan. The main things I am looking for in the car is for it to be kinda sporty, reliable, and fun to drive. Ive considered honda civics, and corollas, but it seems like everyone has those these days, and I want something a little bit different. I finally got my money saved up for the downpayment, plus I have my 1991 Chevy Lumina, that Im gonna use as a trade in, hopefully I can get about $300-600 for it from a dealer, so in the next fwe weeks, I am going to go out and test drive some new cars, If i can ever make up my mind on what I want

My girlfriend got a 2004 lancer used for like 9000. Its not an evo, but its pretty nice it has 4 doors and it is pretty peppy. Its alot smoother than the 2003 cavalier it replaced, though I don't know that its really much faster.

Re: Help me find a new used car.

Sounds to me like you want a late 90's Japanese sedan. They take the cake when it comes to reliability and low cost of ownership, and some of them are very sporty and fun to drive as well. My top recommandations would be the 94-01 Acura Integra GS-R sedan, 97-01 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS sedan, and 95-99 Nissan Maxima SE.

Yea, I have considered the Impreza RS, but I cant seem to find any where I live in Texas. I never really considered an Integra, so I will look into around and see about those. I have also thought about a maxima, but the only ones I can find are older modles, and when i get my car, I want to get something 2001 or up if possible,and all the Maxima's, well atleast the SE with the V6 cost more then I can afford in those modles.

Well, I only want to spend around 10k, but if I find a really good deal, I might go up to around 12-15, But no more then that.

No one is going to believe you. If you are selling it that cheap, there must be something wrong with it. "There is no such thing as a free lunch."
