Which car should I purchase from this list?

Question

I have narrowed it down to four. Let's consider that each would be a 2004 model year. Please state reasons for your answers. Thanks!

1.) Lexus IS300
2.) Nissan 350z
3.) Mazda RX-8
4.) Infiniti G35 Coupe (although I may not be able to afford this one)

Answer 1

I know very little about the above listed cars other than the Mazda RX-8.

2004 was the first year out and there are alot of bugs.
I own a 2006, and with a rotary engine, its not something you want to buy used without a proven maintenance record (I mean listing when oil was added... not kidding here!)

Replacing an engine in this thing is a small fortune... steer clear unless you can be sure it was treated right.

Good luck.

Answer 2

I have to say I'm a little partial to "Mazda". My husband had an 82' hatchback that ran well over 120K miles and was great in the maintenance dept. We now own a 2000 Mazda Protege' and a 2002 Protege' and absolutely love them. Bought the 2000 new w/no problems (*knocking on wood*), the 2002 was used with less than 30K and runs beautifully. Feel very confidant with this Make of car. Good luck! Would LOVE an RX-8!

Answer 3

ok! welll... this is a great list of choices. I would very much have to say the Lexus. Because, they are probably the most reliable out of this list, next to the mazda, but Lexus cars are sleek and hott and have reasonable gas mileage too! my second choice would be the mazda, because they have very good gas mileage. this is about all i can offer you... but i would go with the lexus... think on it for about 2 days though... print up a picture of each of your 2 faves and look at them a few minutes each day... whatever you come to like in the end.... get it of course. good luck and happy buying!

Answer 4

going by your question, if Infinity is out of ur budget, then so will the Lexus, between the Nissan and the Mazda, go in for a Nissan, its better made, and more reliable, and fuel efficient, u will thank me later.

One last thing, drive both the Mazda, and the Nissan, u must love it for its handling, feel one with the car, which ever..........

happy driving.

anytime you purchase a used motor vehicle you should continuously take the motor vehicle to a mechanic you recognize and believe to have the motor vehicle inspected from the front to again earlier you purchase the motor vehicle. The mechanic received't discover all the little minor issues yet a good mechanic can tell if the engine is undesirable or if the transmission is going undesirable. those 2 elements are very expensive to change. i'm not declaring all the different elements are less costly notwithstanding the engine and transmission are some the most expensive products. If the seller do not want you to take the motor vehicle to have it regarded at, you are able to fantastically a lot guess there is something the seller would not want you to carry close. sellers like those continuously have an excuse for you not taking the motor vehicle to get regarded at. they could inform you that they are afraid you received't go back with the motor vehicle or something like that. you should continuously ask them to flow with you to the mechanic and seem ahead to themselves because the motor vehicle is regarded at. the seller ought to come off with something like they don't have time to flow with you. it truly is a stalling trick. anytime you purchase something from Craig's record you want to analyze it out truly nicely. i'm not declaring that anybody attempting to promote something on Craig's record is a scammer yet there seems a good element of the sellers are scammers. As for what you may do on your difficulty, there probable isn't a lot you may do because maximum used automobiles are offered as and with none type of assure. In different words you took a probability on a used motor vehicle and lost. Now, you're saying it stopped operating after 4 days. there are more than a number of diverse issues that ought to reason a motor vehicle to end operating. it could be only a small ten dollar merchandise or it could be into the thousands of money difficulty. If it run good once you obtain it then it could be only a grimy gasoline clear out or an electric powered section desiring replaced. until eventually you're taking it to a mechanic and discover out what's incorrect you received't recognize for confident. If there's a secure practices problem with reference to the motor vehicle and the seller did not recommend you of the safe practices difficulty then you actual ought to and that i take advantage of the be conscious "ought to" gently be able to flow to the regulation enforcement and get the safe practices difficulty repaired yet i does not guess on it. good success with the motor vehicle and go get it regarded at and be conscious what's incorrect.
