Thinking About a New Car, Need Urgent Tips!

Here are my current possiblities, btw I'm 16.

- 2003 Honda Accord, Fully Loaded (- Navi) ~ Found a black one for $10,000, 45k miles.
- 99-01 Lexus GS300, Loaded (- Navi) ~ At least $10,000 havn't found one yet, miles from 80+.
- 2007 Dodge Charger R/T, Loaded (- Navi) ~ $16,000, I found one of these with about 10k miles.

Can someone please help me out, from what I can see though the Accord is a great buy and I'm concidering it but I really wanted a Charger in the first place.

If you're 16 then you don't need the whopping 340 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque found in the RWD Charger. Wait til you're like 23 for that kind of muscle and in the meantime stick with an Accord.

Re: Thinking About a New Car, Need Urgent Tips!

I have had a lot of trouble with my RX300 Lexus and have not
been satisfied with my service. Corporate customer service
basically says "sorry you feel that way"
Unless you know how to fix a Lexus I would recommend something
else.
My husband likes his ford truck.

That sounds like a lemon. Lexus has continuously been at the top of the reliability rankings.

I'd go for the Accord. Practical, reliable, lower miles, all around good car.
