Recommend Me a Daily Driver

[coreyw]

My E30 is getting a heart transplant soon here, so I'm thinking I'll need something to drive while it's under, and maybe something to just daily drive from now on, as a commuter car for work.

- Car or SUV (needs 4 doors)
- 25+mpg (really would like 30+)
- Manual transmission preferred
- MUST have great AC (rear AC if possible too)
- AWD/4WD a plus, but not necessary
- Cupholders are always good
- Reliable of course
- And the hard part, under $6k (if that's even possible)

Any suggestions? Thanks.

best car to get hands down, 2000-2003 Toyota Solara I4 manual.

i almost sold my other e30 for one, because it is that good.

Sorry, forgot to mention I need 4 doors.

Scion xb, hahaha!

But yah, a second E30 that's more stock might actually work too. Good working AC is hard to find though.

Has everything you listed

I'm positive you can find an e30 or e34 that meets all your criteria for under 6k. That's a pretty big budget for these cars.

- 25+mpg (really would like 30+) 318i 4 door E30
- Manual transmission preferred 5spd 318i 4 door E30
- MUST have great AC (rear AC if possible too) 5spd 318i 4 door E30 with all 4 windows down
