FIRST CAR =]
For my first car, I want something "newer looking" so I don't anything under a 2002, fast, automatic, and 15,000 or under. I made a list of possible cars.
- 2004 Subaru WRX
- 2002-2004 BMW 325i or 325iC
- 2005 Hyundai Tiburon
& if i can find a Infiniti G35 coupe that is in my price range, then that too.
Out of all of them:
What car do you think fits my standards?
What car do you like the most?

Maybe give some free advice about: Cars?
if your looking for something classy then deffinatly the BMW. If your looking for something classy and sport go with the Infiniti. Or just sporty go with the tiburon. Id personally pick the Infiniti if u can find one b/c its sporty and classy and thats my personality. I recenlty got my first car it ia an Acura TSX. Its safe and looks great too but be prepared to pay premeium gass prices with the top of the line cars

Which car do I like the most? The G35 Coupe, mainly because it reminds me of a Nissan 350Z.
Now which car fits your standards? I don't really know what your standards are.

I would go with the Subaru...with the BMW your insurance will be through the roof and if anything happens like if you get in a wreck or something you'll have to pay even more...the Hyundai or Subaru would be good first cars...but go for something a bit older...i know you don't want anything under a 2002 but maybe look for a 2002 Hyundai or Subaru...the older the car the lower the insurance and you'll also want to check safety ratings and stuff...just make sure to test drive it first before making a full on decision

get the subaru. best choice of all of em. BMW's are trash, big german piles of trash. a hyundai... wow i can't believe you'd even consider it fast. it looks fast but it's slow as hell. and a G35? no kid should have that. i'm sorry but it's too much for you. get the scooby, you'll be glad you did.

**EDIT** Um... did you even bother reading my answer all the way?
I said "I would say they are all good cars, and you definitely have the right idea about wanting something with low mileage."
Also I said "Which car do I like best? I would choose any of them..."
I never said those cars were pieces of shit. I told you how to BEWARE of pieces of shit.
I was giving you a bit of automobile EDUCATION, not CRITICISM.

Ok, don't think I'm a jerk, here because I'm just being realistic.
A Corvette is what fits my standards, but I drive a clunky looking GMC Jimmy because it gets me and my brood safely down the road without drinking a pile of gas.
I'm not saying that your standards are too high, or that you should buy a hunk of junk. I'm saying you got to put your automobile needs before your automobile style.
Why? Because I bought the sweetest slickest looking 1990 Camaro. I'm telling you, that baby was SHARP, now. However, mechanically it was a piece of crap. And it wasn't a high mileage car. It was just a mechanical piece of crap.
You don't want to get a cherry looking Beamer and have it end up throwing a rod or something and leaving you stranded.
I would say they are all good cars, and you definitely have the right idea about wanting something with low mileage.
Which car do I like best? I would choose any of them because so far as I know, they all have good gas mileage, considering gasoline is liquid gold at this point. So high MPG is good to look for.
Let me give you a few tips:
CHECK THE FLUIDS BEFORE YOU BUY! Pull dipsticks and open the radiator cap!
Make sure the oil isn't black and full of metal flakes or gunk. It should be smooth and be a transparent golden brown.
The radiator should be full, and the liquid should be a transparent limey green color. It shouldn't be cloudy, yellowy, goopy, or have floaties.
The transmission fluid should be a transparent red, and not have debris or metal flakes. You'll be able to see any nasties on the dipstick, and the same goes for the oil.
Don't be embarrassed to ask where the dipsticks for oil and tranny are, or where the radiator cap is and how to open it if you don't know.
There is nothing to be ashamed of about it. You are forking out cash for something that you want to be a sound running vehicle.
Don't trust the salesman to tell you it is a pile of steaming turd on wheels. He's going to tell you it is in good shape in order to get you to buy it.
Good luck in getting a good car! :)
