Replying to: thegraduate (Mar 10, 2008 12:01 pm) Taurus and Azera are good calls; you just have to think there are good deals on the Taurus out there. Or maybe the Sable variant; how many people can a Mercury dealer have walk through the doors these days? There are oddballs out there, like the Mitsubishi Galant...those look roomy and highly incentivized. A friend has a Saab 9-3...great seats and stellar gas mileage for what it is; he has put over 100k on his with few issues (turbo 4, not the 6). They always have a huge rebate. Saturn Aura? Never see them, so they can't exactly be flying out the door either. Fun game...

Replying to: thegraduate (Mar 10, 2008 12:01 pm) Seems like the Toyota Avalon would be a great fit! It's very comfortable and has plenty of power (268hp) for highway cruise.  Or have you thought about the Sonata V6? It's fairly comfortable and has a lot of power too! Plus, you'll be able to get a lot of options for the same price as other vehicles.... May I ask why not the Accord? I thought you love your car a lot and the 08 Accord presumably has even better, more comfortable rides and less road noise than the 7th Gen Accords.

Replying to: according2u06 (Mar 10, 2008 6:37 pm) ), my folks felt, was trying to be an Accord but failed. They couldn't help but keep comparing it to the Gen 7 Accord and feeling like it was lacking. Good suggestions otherwise! May I ask why not the Accord? I thought you love your car a lot and the 08 Accord presumably has even better, more comfortable rides and less road noise than the 7th Gen Accords. I love mine, but frankly, my dad wasn't impressed by the EX-L 2008 he drove. He had a 2003 and a 2005, and drove them over 100k miles combined. The news one's interior falls a bit short for him, as well as me - too busy looking.

Replying to: thegraduate (Mar 10, 2008 12:01 pm) CPO S60 2.5T (heck, you can typically get a leftover or demo model for the mid-$20k range, again high 20s mpg on the highway, and quiet, also FWD if bad weather is a concern and you don't want to deal with swapping to winter tires like you would with the bimmer. A CPO one with low miles should dip down in the high teens for price.) |

Replying to: thegraduate (Mar 10, 2008 7:32 pm)  Also, how long do your parents plan to keep the car? If resale value is important, going domestic is probably not a very good idea (It's the truth, no offense against domestic vehicles).
