Because he came on here asking a pretty common sense question, so I provided the opposite of what he is looking for.

If this is really the direction the guy is going, he needs to pick up Consumer Reports and such, not ask a bunch of broke dick baggypants that can't afford to maintain their 20+ year old heaps.

If I had that much money and had those critereon, I'd get a mazda3. They are brilliant.

We ruled out scions just because they are butt ugly, especially that cube garbage.

We looked at a few rabbits, all 3 of them for sale here lol.... They were a bit more spendy than anything else, and just didn't stack up when you factored in warranties and mpg. I have a mk5 2.5 jetta and I can crack 28mpg at best. Supposedly the fit can do 38, but we will see what happens if he gets it.

Looks like most people are in favor of a fit. Probably going to take another look at it then. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something I was missing.

MKIII MR2 spyder

honda fit is tight as fuck. i want one

[Holland]

Just say NO to Versa. Stay away, very far away.

Srsly, the Cube isn't as spacious as it looks. The interior is really uninspired as well... lawn chairs would probably be better than what it has.

I'd vote for the Sentra SE-R if you want the most fun. Or the 1st gen fit if you just want something economical.

my mother has an 08 rabbit 5 speed with the 2.5, its a very nice car

I think he means the MK1

[3bvert]

a straight e30 wiht a 10k budget would make a real nice car:D

Fit ftw!!!

[madformx5]

Yeah but even an e wouldn't come close to some of the new little cars in gas mileage. The fact that he wants an auto tells me all I need to know about him anyway. He wants an automotive appliance.
