Re: buying a new car and need help

What do you want to do with it?

Do you live in a part of the country that gets snow in winter?

Do you have any kids or dogs you take out, do you surf, do you need to be able to fit 4 big fat friends in it, do you want to have room to screw in the back, or get a quick hand job in the front?

You need to narrow down what you need from the car, then add what you would also like, and go from there.
A leather interior is want, being able to fit a family of 4 is a need.

Re: buying a new car and need help

I don't know why this thread is in car comparisons, but here are my suggestions from car buying (before i saw the 90k miles):

Re: buying a new car and need help

Also, are you looking for a fixer upper/hobby car (I imagine so by your budget) or are you looking for reliable transportation/daily drive?
