taking the car to a dealership you trust, cause an indepented may not be honest or trust worthy either but a dealership, for example if its a honda, take it to a honda dealership that is respectable in the community, they will try there best to help you, they want your business and your return business as well..

2006 Accord Hybrid has been delayed. It might not be available until mid-year.
 
For $30K:
 
You have a 6-speed IS250, 6-speed G35 sedan/coupe, Avalon Limited, Loaded Leather Prius, BMW 325, S2000.
 
Or in two years a uused E320CDI
  
It all depends on what you want and what you consider most important besides just the $30K.
 
Reliability, Handling, mileage, performance, number of passengers, cargo space, asthetic value, features
 
Double sixes,

the '06 hybrid will be out in april, but then what does that matter if your saying to wait for two years to get a used car.
     plus you got the honda backing. it is already febuary, you can get all the info you need on the hybrid to design the exact color style accesories that you want in it and have it deliverd right to your house...
 
    though the BMW 325 is a good pick as well, even though you wont be able to get one fully loaded for under $30k

Do you mean the old Alfa Romeo?
 
Or, the Pepperidge Farm cookie?
 
Or, the Mercury Milan?

yes yes - you are both right
 
the "Milan"
 
they say it gets over 30 mpg - so it meets that "spec" - not sure about the others
 
I think I need a thread - "Most Fun Cars that get 30 mpg and that you'd be willing to drive at 80 mph on a freeway every single day back and forth to work 20 miles away? (no price limit)"

If a person needs a lot of room, Hyundai Azera or Toyota Avalon, brand new.
