Hi there,
I am looking to buy a new car and need some help with narrowing down my choices. I am currently driving a 2002 Hyundai Sonala V6 LX and cannot wait to upgrade. Looking to switch to either Nissan Altima or Maxima or to go with Subaru Legacy bc. of their AWD.
I am driving ~50miles/day to get to work and back and am looking for a reliable, safe and not too expensive to maintain car.
Altima seems to be a right choice for it's look and great fuel efficiency. I am concerned though with how would it drive in the winter conditions in new England where i live.
maxima is in the mix because it's a heavier car than Altima and i am thinking would preform better in the snow. not sure if this is a true statement.
And subaru, really looking at it for AWD capabilities. Don;t know much more about it.
It would be great if I could get some feedback on Altima performance in snow, Altima vs. maxima, and the costs of parts /repairs between the 3 vehicles to help me ease into this decision.
thanks all for your help.
