So my grandparents have said as a gift for getting accepted in medschool they will get me any car 2010 or 2009 under $30,000. my top choices so far
eclipse - good average stats but the backseats have gotten nerfed even more and the acceleration is said to have some issues
jetta - exceptional power especially in their high end engines, new models are geared to luxery as well. however major handling concerns
rsx - shocks, suspension, very sporty interior, all are boasted by this car. engine is pretty top too, stock comes with about 210 hp. very heavy car unlike other acuras and the handling suffers a little bit
definitely sticking to something japanese or possibly german, don't need anything shitty quality. your guys thoughts?

Definitely wouldn't be close to 30k, but it would be hard to find a reliable one. the last year they were made was 2002. i have to add that the only requirement that my grandparents made that it has to be front wheel or 4wd drivetrain because the winters here have been freaking brutal. |

most overrated cars in history imo unless you are filthy rich and can afford to pay 2-5k for random electrical malfunctions every year. if you can afford that then great, if not then this isn't the kind of car for you. i want a combination of reliability/sexy, not just the latter ;o |

audi is a nice brand, but i'm having trouble finding a model that catches my eye. halp? the car is just for random driving, but i do drive the hell out of my car. i have an 03 civic right now that boasts an impressive 189 horsepower and has weight reductions and govenor removed =o |

I can't find a price anywhere on it. the supra mods are outdated though, there are better more efficient ones on the market today plus that car probably weighs 2 tonns so that hp is wasted. also the fact it would get raped in snow/ice. i really do appreciate your input though =) |
