Answer 1

honda civic!

Answer 2

Get a used Honda. Check the price listings in your area, or better still, see if you can buy it off of a friend or someone you know. It's one way to get a good deal.

Answer 3

get an older honda or toyota or maybe nissan. very fuel efficient.

Answer 4

I would say a Honda Civic. It's kind of the best all-round car -- not too expensive, cheap to insure and operate, good performance, looks good, and is safe. If you don't like the Civic, here's an article with some other suggestions:

Answer 5

Hondas are NOT cheap to insure.

They are the most stolen cars in the USA.

Answer 6

Honda or Toyota, both are known for reliability and good gas mileage.

Answer 7

get a used honda!

Answer 8

If you want a reliable car over looking, get an older Honda/Toyota.

If you want a better/newer looking car, get a higher milage Hyundai or American car.

The Hyundai or american cars lost its value fast at used car market especially if the car has a high milage on it, so 5000 can get you a 200x year model, where as Honda/Toyota you can only get a 199x model etc, so you can look better with your car... Reliable... if you are new driving and planning to have the car only for 4 years for college, the car should be reliable enough, get some fund stored for fixing... even you get a Toyota, you will need to fix some parts for older age cars.  

Answer 9

you should get a honda, or if you want a 4x4, go with a toyota 4x4 pickup. either way you'll get tons of miles out of them, and great mpg

Answer 10

get a cheap $1000 honda or nissan and fix it up :)
