Buying & Selling - May 2007

Which one would you choose if it were a three to four year old car with about 60K miles on it? I've heard the audi's have some electrical problems, but haven't heard anything on the acura. These run about $12K or should I just go for a new Honda Civic? What's your thoughts?

Alright, check it out. November '06 i bought an '06 Chevy Aveo w/ 20,000 miles. May '06 some idiot ran a red light and i t-boned him. ie, car is totaled. Obviously now i'm lookin for another car, and no I don't want another Aveo (The guy at the towing lot told me 5 out of 10 aveos he got were cars where people died in the wreck).

This is what i'm looking at, and i've looked at alot of different opinions on each.

Obviously I want cheap, and also kinda safe. Right now my top 2 are '07 S Yaris 4dr OR any year Mazda3

Prices were closer than i thought on those 2, but each are around $15000 brand new. Any ideas of nice rides that are as good (if not better) and even cheaper than that?

On the two cars mentioned above, i can't decide between 6 more mpg or 40 more hp lol

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

dealers say the car has a "premium" markup. How do you negotiate for a low price?

I am now considering which car to lease. Would anyone give me any idea?or comments?
I have got 2 cars in my mind, they are:
Mazda-Miata(MX5)
Volkswagen-GTI
Since both of them are sporty and fun to drive, it is hard to make a decision between them.

..is that true? I live in California. I looked at all the forms and none of them mentions this, but she insists that she heard it from somewhere. Can anyone prove me right/wrong?

I have been told that it is much wiser to buy a used car - a few months old with about 2000-3000 miles on it - than buying a new car since it depreciates as soon as it leaves the showroom.

Is that true? I am planning to buy a Toyota corolla, what kind of depreciation should i expect and how much less than MSRP do you think should I pay ? (A % range is also ok).
Would buying a "toyota Certified" used car help?

Are there any other aspects I must look into in the buying process?

The lease on my 2005 Honda Civic EX is up in October, and I have to decide whether or not to buy it or to get something else. I'm thinking about getting a (small) SUV to get some height and presence on the road. But, then again, I love Civics and the new ones are lookin' good. Or, I could just buy the one I have. I've looked at the Jeep website and am thinking about a Compass, but I've heard mixed reviews. I don't go offroad, so a Wrangler would be pointless (although I love them). And, obviously, gas mileage is a big issue. Not looking to go over $20k. Any suggestions/insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

I know its crunch time for them to meet their quota for the month, but do you think i'd be able to get the same price a few days into the month as i did at the end? any personal experiences? and does anyone own a hyundai accent? will either buy this or the ford focus next time they have 3000 cash back. plus my mom works with ford. thats another 8-900 off.

I say that Honda is definatly better. Why? Because Toyota spends millions on advertising while Honda lets the quality of thier product do the talking.

I am looking to get a new 2007 Nissan Altima 2.5 S, with the Convenience Plus Package (alloy wheels, sunroof, etc). The MSRP is $23,375, but the dealership is offering around $2000 off since the '08s are coming in. For those of you who have purchased a new Altima, how much were you able to bring the price down? I want them to include a spoiler...what do you think?

I am financing a car now but want to get a new one and let my friend take over payments of my first car (she has bad credit, so the car will remain in my name). Do I have to have additional credit to have 2 cars financed under my name? Will I be charged a higher rate or does it not make a difference? Thanks.
