Car Experts help me out -
06-18-2006, 07:05 PM
Looking to buy a new car but I can't decide which one...All of the choices are good in a way but have their negatives.
My views
-The Scion TC is sporty, good control, speed, has a nice sound system, good for my age..but the views and the space isn't that great. +It's only 2 door, it'll be a hassle for other passengers to get in and out.
-Toyota Camry 2007, looks better this year, good control/speed, 4 door, good space, but when It gave me an "old" feeling(not for my age)
-Mazda3 is "stylish", 4 door, decent space, good control/speed, but I really don't know much about it.
-The Civic is like the others w/ good mpg but its bland to me for some reason.
Also I googled top selling cars but Scion+mazda was no where to be found even though it's rated quite high on "ranking sites".
I'm open for other recommendations

I think it was in the Consumer Guide - the Camry had the best rating.

^agreed
with gas milage, civic would probably be your best bet, i drive a '99 civic LX, and it's a great car, but dont know much about the new ones. it's really safe, too

hes talking about the tC sedan tho with that full sunroof thing going on, which is stylish and highly customizable for extra cash
if youre looking for a car that will last, the camry is the way to go
mazda's are sexy too....tough decision
id probs get the mazda or camry...you havent considered a vw at all?

My chick has the mazda 3 with the sport package, leather, low profile tires, bose speaker system, sunroof, etc. 5 speed and very fun to drive.
The rain sense wipers are a cool feature too.
My only gripe (a weak one though) is the road noise but you'll probably have the music cranked up anyways.
Very sexy ride.
just my $.02

Your criticism sucks.
EDIT: One camry does not represent so many.
