| They're expensive and expensive to maintain, but worth having. At the same time, a lot of newer American cars get a lot better gas mileage than they used to. My girlfriend drives a regular Ford Focus and gets 35-45 mpg. |

ya im not a fan of Acura. I had my eye out on the Sline. however, friend has one he says its a bitch to fix because everything is different from the rest of the Audi line's. parts are rare and hard to come by :( |
I just bought a 4 year old Honda Accord 2.0 (Acura TSX I guess), they are rare over here (and not too expensive compared to others). I bought it in Germany.
I love it. It's not as fast as my previous Skoda Octavia 1.8T, but still fast enough. My wife didn't want me to buy a BMW or Audi, so looking at quality it's a good choice others told me.
I'm just looking for bigger wheels as it still has those small 16 inch ones. 18 or maybe 19 it should become and not like this:

| I'd personally not want to deal with a real estate agent that drives up in an expensive ass car, as that tells me they need to make a bunch of cash off me to keep paying for that . I went through a few agents while searching for a rental, and the ones in the big body Merecedes & BMW's were giving me deals. The guy who drove the explorer got my money and he went above & beyond to deliver. |

| ya thats a rental though dude lol. They are pretty straight forward. Experience is very important when buying or selling. |

Could've always got the one with the DSG. Not a fan of automatic transmissions but the one in the GTI's for the past few years have been amazing. Perhaps not as good as the SMG in the M3s or PDK in the Boxster and Cayman, but still a really good transmission. |

| Yeah but the point of me buying manual transmission in the first place was that I actually wanted to be in total control of my car. It's just more fun and peppy. Every time I drive an automatic transmission I feel like a gimp. Lol. |

One thing I never liked in a car is a cloth interior. Go leather, easier to clean and more comfortable to sit in.
What about a Scion? I am sure you can dump money into it to make it really nice. |

My neighbor who is a well established real estate agent in the north Chicago area drives an Audi Q5.
Looks classy but not overboard. |

| You are going to pay 35k for a car? Jesus, no wonder so many people don't have money left over to save. If you want my honest opinion, you would be better off spending that 35k on prostitutes in the Ukraine and Russia. At least you would have pleasant memories to look back when you are old. |
