Car Shoping

Sexwaffle's Avatar
So thanks to the great frozen rains of the other week I wrecked my car. Total loss but in the end I've got enough for a nice downpayment on a new one.

Anyone have some good recommendations on local dealerships or even car makes/models?

Any providers want to come with me when I buy it to distract the dealer so I can spend the saved cash on you?

Pretty much bored and can't think of much to do right now and I've looked at too many car websites to make myself sick

08 Chevy Cobalt, I've been looking at Civics and Jettas lately. Might look at Mazdas tomorrow.

Surprised VW made CR Car of the Year 2010.
Mazdas are good.

Yea just don't have a specific model of Mozda in mind yet. I know I like jetta and civic so I started there.
Get ya a Govt. Motors vehicle, seeing as how We still own 25% of that piece of shit company. Who knows, maybe you'll get a return on it....

Nah I just looked at the civic and I liked what I saw.
Mostly looking for reccokendations on Mazdas at this point.
That and if anyone else has another make and model that is good.
Although maybe I shouldve asked the providers what kind of car makes them moist on sight lol!

Especially the new MB. Horrible reliability record.
Last good ones made in the mid 80s.
Just got a certified Lexus for a great deal at north park. If you are looking to upgrade to somthing nice without the hit in the pocketbook, may be worth looking at. Check out their site..you'll be surprised.

Thanks for the heads up.

Might also check out the ratings from Consumer Reports.
Have excellent ratings of new and reliable used cars.
