What car should i get?

[Leadfoot[YT]]

Boxters have high running costs. As I mentioned, an alternative is the S2000.

 

If it was my money to spend on a car, I'd still go with the M5. :)

Are you really stuck with an auto? If so that sucks because imo manual's are where it's at. Shame. :p

I recommend getting a nissan my parents have one and they didnt have to spend much money on it up until it got over the 120,000 km mark the nissan engines are great and reliable

Some of you guys are overlooking the fact that this car is for his mother and his father will be getting him a manual vehicle eventually.

If this car that is being bought is going to be for his mum in the long run surely the best thing to do would be to ask her what she wants from a car, besides it being an automatic, then come back to us with her preferences so we can make an informed choice for you. Get a car which your mum likes and grin and bare it until you get your own car, I wouldn't get her to make sacrifices. There are thousands of cars which can be had with an auto box. Does she want a hatch back, convertable or a saloon? Does she want a petrol or diesel engine? Does she want style, reliability or a mix? There are loads of questions to be asked.

 

That's just my opinion, don't take it the wrong way but it seems like a suitable idea.

 

To be fair, a brand new car can turn out to be even more unreliable than a used car. If you choose the right make, with a car which has a shed load of service history with all of the usual needs done the chances are it's going to be as good as one off the forcourt and you will get a better car for a better price.

she knew i was a car enthusiast from i was a little kid, and she feels sorry that i can't get manual because of her, so she is going to let me choose anything basically (budget wise)

Uhh, then why doesn't his mum ask a question here? ;)

 

I really haven't been noticing, I thought we were helping the TDU_(insert-rest-of-name-here) guy from New Zealand. :ill:

I thought we were helping someone else, basically. My bad. :)

 

You can ignore my post on Pgae 1 if you like, not sure how relevant the info is in the US.
