Which of these cars should i get?

Question

The BMW 128I, The Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, or the Volvo S40

Answer 1

I have an idea, with the price of gas, the one that is more fuel efficient.

Answer 2

Hi Mikey D!

Listen, I'm an insurance agent, and my suggestion is to do the following:

1)  Stop listening to your head or ego - whichever is bigger and call your insurance agent.  Ask for a quote on each of the vehicles you'd like to purchase;

2)  Once you determine the insurance premium, add that together with the cost of your car, and determine if it's something you can afford on a monthly basis (gas included);

3)  Think about the car in a high school parking lot.  I don't care whether or not you think you're going to protect it from other drivers.  It's inevitable (mostly because I see it everyday) for one of your jealous or out-of-control classmates to damage the vehicle no matter how hard you try to keep it damage free!

Good luck!  Oh yeah, do your insurance agent a HUGE favor and provide him/her with a VIN (vehicle identification number) for each of the vehicles you're considering.  That way, your quotes will be more accurate.

Answer 3

you must be rich i tell you but if want to know i say jeep but if you are more inclined torwards safety choose the volvo or BMW but if you want great performance go BMW.

Answer 4

the bmw..i have a bmw and i love it to death. it will be the best thing thats happened to you. trust me. maybe up it a little to the 3 series? the 1 series seems to be a little small, but hey whatever floats your boat

Answer 5

They're all very different cars. The 128i is a sport two-door, the S40 is more of a family sedan, and the Jeep is just over-the-top for traveling.

Answer 6

Wow three TOTALLY different cars...

1. Fast

2. Off-road

3. Practical(well, the most)

Ok, I personally have a love for German Engineering, I think you know what I'm leaning towards. But Everyone is different, so take into consideration where you live...

If you live where the weather is random, or snowy,rainy,ect. I would go towards the Wrangler...

But If you like the driving pleasure of great engineering, torque, and design, I would go with the BMW.

Ok, the Volvo is a nice car, I heard it has nice torque, it's simple, and probably the most practical. But it's just the fact that Ford make Volvo, and I am not a big Ford fan, so yea...

All in all, I would personally go with the BMW 135i, as being the closest to the 128i, but the 128i is almost as nice.

So just take a second, and think, seriously which car do I really want/need? And hopefully you can answer your own question...

B-Rad.

Answer 7

Your selection is pretty broad. Personally I would go with the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited but that is personal preference.  With gas prices it obviously isn't the most practical, then again neither is the BMW 128i.  The Volvo s40 would be the best bet if you were looking for fuel economy.  Like I said, it is mostly a matter of preference.

Answer 8

You should check out the ratings on Consumerguide.com.  It will rate safety, MPG, etc.  At a glance, I'd say the BMW but I havent read their reliability ratings.
