I want to buy used, 2 - 4 years old. Most important to me are front wheel drive (or all-wheel), reliability and fuel economy.

I would stick to Japanese if i was you - Honda, Acura, Toyota, Lexus, Mazda... maybe even nissan/infinity
1) Figure out what kind of cars your need (sedan, suv, etc..)
2) Check out the above sites, and start narrowing down your options based on price, economy, reviews, etc...
Know what you want before you start visiting dealers... If you go to dealers first you will end up spending lots of money for something you might not like

A 2003 Nissan Maxima is a great front wheel drive car with good fuel economy and excellent reliability. For even lower fuel useage you could go with an 04 Altima 2.5 or an Accord 4 cylinder. The 04 Corrollas are also nice or for a bargin how about a Mazda 6?

I just traded off a olds. alero for a 2005 saturn Ion and feel it's the best choice I've made about my vehicles. I hated my alero and had nothing but problems, plus they are known for fuel pumps going out. Saturn makes a really decent car and I love mine. Check into them and go from there. . . don't get a low end get an upgrade for instance the Ion comes in the regular or the executive. . . thats what I got. My family all drives Saturns too and have never had any problems. Plus their great for extra features. . . mine is p i m p

I would suggest a Toyota Camry. Personally it has been a great car i have a 1997 and i have had no major troubles with it. the only time i have taken it to a mechanic shop is get the oil or tires changed. it is a great car with great mpg. after 10 years it still runs smooth.

I agree..Stick with the imports..Like Toyota or Honda..Maybe even Nissan..they last long and stick with 4 cylinder cars..Good gas mileage..I have '90 Toyota Corolla..it has lots of miles on but it can prolly last forever.

it is rather useful to take a glance on the PT cruiser.they're very low-priced and not too high priced pondering new motor vehicle expenditures now.additionally Kia is making a smaller SUV it rather is amazingly reliable.desire this helps and stable success with whichever you elect.

if you can find an oldsmobile alero or intrigue it would be your best bet about 22 to 24 mpg and the intrigue is for sure front wheel drive

stick with the japenese...toyota, honda,subaru...they'll be the most reliable. and if you find a certified used, it's one step below a new car.

Anything from Hyundai, sonata, accent, all that. They aren't as pricey, are very safe, good gas mileage, very nice all around. GOOD LUCK!
