Amy, honey, there's no decision there. Choose the Mercedes

I have a 2001 Mercury Cougar (which they stopped making ). It's a funny shade of blue with dark tint, I have yet to be stopped for this. However, next year I will be trading her in for a new Ford Escape, due to all of the snow that we've been getting.

Cool

Just got it last month. My parents helped but I got a good deal for it. It's a 1998 BMW M3. Grey color well it's kind of like a charcoal color. I love it, and I'm not really paying that much for it. only bad thing I let my girlfriend take it to work when her car broke down and some jerkoff hit the car while it was parked and took off. Whoever it was scraped the right front quarter panel. Sux, but I work for my insurance company so I'm getting it handled.

I have a 2001 Silver Metallic Clearcoat Mustang 5 speed. It's only a 6 cylinder though I wanted and could have easily afforded an 8 insurance was simply to high. I have a spotless driving record and still pay $250 a month to insure what I have now. Anyway its getting close to 30,000 miles and still runs great. If you have a pre 99 V6 and think they are slow I urge you to ride in a 99+ Ford completely revamped the engine, mine is on par with a 98 GT. I added a Dual Exhaust from a GT and did a few other performance mods. Its a great car.... no Z06 lol but still fun....

I drive a Burgundy 1998 Mazda 626 LX. Her name is Destiny! She's been a good car. I bought her used in 2001. I bought her with 30K miles. She now has 51K.

My company's headquarters is relocating this summer and my commute is about to go from 12 minutes to about an hour each way, so I am starting to look into the possibility of buying a new car later on this year. I don't want to put the extra mileage on the Mazda.

I am looking at the following (all 2003):

Toyota Corolla
Toyota Camry
Dodge Neon
Nissan Altima
Honda Accord
Honda CR-V
Hyundai Santa Fe
Chevy Tracker
Toyota Rav4

I welcome any comments/suggestions about these vehicles!

Shannon

If you're considering CR-V/RAV4 type cars take a look at the Element. Got one a few weeks ago and it's been great.

My dad got the G35 last year when it came out. It is an amazing car!! It is also amazingly affordable! Infiniti cars/trucks are great. They appear to be pricey but they all come fully loaded. There are no base models.

I have a black 2002 pathfinder. I love it.

that Honda Element is kinda cool though

VWs SUV comes out in the fall. You can check it out at vw.com, it looks pretty cool. Mr amycat saw it at the la auto show and is predicting I will fall in love with it.

I couldn't go back to a 4 cylinder engine, no way, no how. I'd be looking at the C class w the 6, and has nothing to do w lower end anything-- I like that body style best of all the mercedes. Like w BMWs, I could buy a 5, but I like the 3s better.

I only drive German cars, its a quirk of mine. lol
