Looked at the Elantra Touring... a nice ride... Hyundai has definitely improved. Dang salesman was desperate.
 
The Suburu Impreza Outback looks like it fit's my bill as well...
 
I compared it to the 2010 Mazda s HB in celestial blue...OMG. After test driving the Mazda... I just had to leave the dealership. I had too much of a grin on my face....
I really think the 5 door Hatchback with the 2.5L 6 speed manual may end up being my pick. It was so... fun to drive. I think the salesman knew I was in love.... that's why I had to leave... How can you negotiate when you know you want it!
 
Hee hee...
 
The practical side of me... may change my mind.... but that's really the car I want. *sigh*

do those with passenger sided gas fillers struggle at the filling station
 
Actually, all of my current cars have the filler on the passenger side. It was a pain when I had a stable that included both sides. I could never remember which was which.
 
In any case, it can be a bit annoying at times. I'm always concerned with blocking people in who have it on the driver's side and are at the first pump in the island. If I nose up to them, they have to reverse out. And another note, which isn't a problem for me at 6'5", but I can see it being a problem for shorter folks with bigger cars, stretching across the passenger seat to pass your money/credit card out the passenger window to the attendant (unless you live in a self-serve state).
 
Anyway, it doesn't have any bearing on what car i choose.

If that's the car you really want and you can afford it, why not get it? Life is short.

Well... it really is about whether or not I can afford it. But you are correct! Life is short!

How about a USED Mazda3s hatch? Still a great car, and you'll save thousands off new.

My son is looking to buy a new car. Something safe, not too expensive etc. What would be some of the best options?
Thanks, BMW

In the under $15,000 category, I'd look at something like a two or three year old Accord. Plenty of safety features, a frugal engine, and still halfway fun to drive.

not only pricerange, but you should also at least narrow down his needs a bit. does he need a troop transport? or would a 2-seater suffice?

We have been considering sedans such as the Civic and the Corolla.Maybe a SUV. He does need a 4 seater. We have thought about buying new, as my son can make a reasonable monthly payment. My guy that looks for cars suggested a 09 Corolla S. I read the reviews which were less than inspiring.Ideas?
