Sold my car...what do I get?

[SHONOFF98]

Guy picked it up a couple hours ago...so I guess I'm currently carless. I was thinking about pre-paying a 2 year lease OR getting a used car. Even after I make that decision I still dont know what kind to either buy or lease.

Any thoughts or opinions?

Get a Honda with VTEC, there FAST!

 

[SHONOFF98]

Too fast for my blood

Can get a real good deal on SUVs!

 

[BLOWN PONY]

I've heard great things about them SRT-4's :xpl:

 

[Iwannacobra04]

Fusion w/ turbo setup...new age sleeper

I have driven the new hondas and I think they are alright. They are no cobra but they are pretty spacious and smooth. Just don't rice it out.

 

[philip]

Mercury Maruader.

Probably should have had that figured out BEFORE you sold your car

Is this your DD or is it a fun car? What are your top priorities? Mileage, fun, straight line set up or twisties?

If you don't know what you want and need a car, how about a beater for the time being?

Need a good DD car for all year that I can put mileage on...I was thinking about leasing a Jeep Grand Cherokee or a GMC Envoy they look to have pretty good deals going on

 

[Mika]

Out of those two I'd rather the GMC Envoy. So you need clearance for snow up there, or is this more of a desire?



Mika

 

[SHONOFF98]

Definately need something that can make it through the winter as the snow here sucks (once we get some)

 

[Riddla]

Trail Blazer SS or a Jeep SRT-8 :coolman:

Or a new Lincoln LS or Zephyr (sp)

Miles + Lease = Sucks

Be very careful on a lease... they have brought the prices down on some by lowering the milage limits. Have seen them as low as 8-9K per year. (Then they charge out the a$$ for miles over)

Last month, I found a ton of 4x4 SUVs in the 7-9k range, but be prepared for a 15 - 16 mpg

What about an AWD Subaru?

That might be something to check into, I was seeing some 2 year prepaid leases for like 4-5 grand on those Jeeps which is a deal in my book but yea the mileage I believe is like 10k a year.
