What kind of car should i look into getting?

Question

i drive alot and am going to university soon. i was looking into a 2003+ jetta probably 1.8t or vr6. i want to know witch eninge is more reliable and better for everyday driving and gas wise too.

i am also open to other cars that you guys may recommend. im looking more into a car cause i have a suv now and dont want another one. also prefer a nice sedan or coupe. i got 17000 to use on a new car.

Answer 1

Are you looking for a new Jetta? the new one comes in a 2.0 or 2.5 liter engine, which is great. The new ones are turbo, which have more power, more MPG, but use premium gas.

Get the Jetta S- It comes base loaded with everything you'll need: power steering, A/C, premium sound system, side airbags, AUX jack, power locks, power windows power mirros and so much more.

If you rlooking for a hatchback, go for the VW Rabbit- Same engine as the jetta for a cheaper price.

Another sedan i really like is the Mazda 3. Its a fun little car that you can find cheaper than the corolla or the civic. Its fun to drive, easy to park, and gets really good MPG.

Of course, there are the option of the three common cars: Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic and Nissan Sentra, but these cars are inflated in price at the moment due to high demand.

Test drive them all out and see how you like each of them. I knew i fell in love with VW that way.

Answer 2

don't get a hybrid, they have no power, i'd recommend the v6 jetta, it is good on gas and still has some power. you might also look into a mazda 3.

Answer 3

For $17K, here are my Recommendations,

Chevy Cobalt SS

Pontiac G5

Mazda 3 - Get Mazda Speed options.

Do your homework so you get the best price. Know all the rebates offered.

Answer 4

Get the BEST mileage Hybrid you can afford... -Because if you THINK Gas is done going up for awhile- think AGAIN !!! And MORE You Drive, the MORE that's going to matter... :0
