Car Advice-Recommendation

I'm about to be in the market for a new ride. What to buy, what to buy.... :frusty:

Anyone on this board really like their car and would recommend buying the same model? I'm currently torn between a G35 Coupe, Caddy CTS or new Mustang or..... :smashfrea

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

The CTS is the HOTNESS. I'm a fan of luxury AND muscle so I'd go for that with the G35 being a close second.

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

that retro shelby design mustang is pretty sweet especially with the cobra mustangs coming out this year. and that'd be the only ford car I'd ever buy cuz after all the bs I've gone through with my POS Taurus, I ain't wasting money on another and all of the parts consistently needed to keep it going.

and with the subject brought up, anyone ever or currently own a hyundai? I'm thinking about getting a sonata in a month or so (my price range is pretty small, lol) and while I like the car I really like the warranty hyundai provides, but I was curious if anyone else had had one and what they thought of it. I'm either going with it or a toyota matrix or scion.

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

I say boo to the Mustang - you don't want an ugly ride!

Personally, I have an Acura CL and love it. Runs like a champ, comfortable, etc. I've been in a G35 and really liked it. The CTS looks nice and caddy has a nice reputation. I think all of those cars are winners!

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

I'm down with the new Mustang, but like Daseal, I like luxury and performance all rolled up into one. I had an Acura before the car I have now and it was the best performing car I've ever had. (I've had 3 prior to that)

It had 180,000 miles and not a hiccup. Even though if you're picking from those 3, I think you'll be VERY pleased with the CTS.

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

Can't go wrong with the Mustang if you going for a sporty ride. If you're thinking about something that goes well in the snow and ice, I wouldn't buy anything that is rear-wheel drive.

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

look into the impreza wrx. you will like.


or cheaper route for more horsepower, and you lose the all wheel drive, the Dodge SRT 4. Thats what they call it, but its really a turbo charged neon. Its front wheel drive, and it's pretty fast for the price.

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

I think he's looking for luxury too, but yeah if you want solid horsepower. The SRT-4 is the fastest car under 20k.

Re: Car Advice-Recommendation

I know first hand that if you get on it, you can just watch the gas gauge go down. Like an 8-9 gallon tank too. What a bitch.

I currently have a hyundai Sante Fe. It is there SUV that they have. I really like it, and I am probably going to buy a new one when I trade this one in. It gets awsome gas milage for a suv type car. I get about 32 to 35 mpg highway and like 25 to 28 around town. I have no complants about it, it handles very well and for being only a 4cylinder it has good power. but now I think that they come standard with a v-6. An over all rating I would give it a 10/10.
