freak Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 Mercury Milan, Jetta... can't remember everything right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molal24 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Milan is crap, Jetta is crap. I've driven in both. If you're thinking Fusion then thats crap too. You want a good car? I'd go with a 2.5i Legacy or a V6 Pontiac G8. The G8 is one hell of a car. It's RWD and is probably the first American car that I've seen with an amazing non-cheap interior. Try out the G8. It takes regular and they are selling real cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenc544 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Your options are pretty limited if you want a sedan with AWD, stick and use regular gas. Legacy and Impreza 2.5i sedans are the only ones come to mind... Except for Subaru, AWD is usually only available on the upper trim levels for other manufacturers. Which means they are usually only available with higher output engine, meaning premium gas, or automatic only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenc544 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 The g8 looks nice but 38K?!?!?!?! I like the 6 speed manual!!!!!! Only the GXP version can be had with a manual and I don't think it uses regular gas. It has Corvette's LS3 engine and the Corvette certainly doesn't use regular gas.

It's a new model so it will have it's own share of growing pains. I generally stay away from the first model year of any car, especially the early production ones. Yes, the rattles and squeaks are really annoying but you can fix a lot of them by yourself if you invest the time and effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow05gtRI Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 the rattles i've got recently came from getting hit by another car. they seem to be interior bits loose. the main one i hear is near the driver's side a-pillar. if i put pressure on the area where the dash board meets the a-pillar it goes away, but comes back when I let off. it mainly happens on very bumpy roads (everywhere this time of year in the northeast). i can tune it out most of the time but sometimes it gets to me...

Legacy and Impreza 2.5i sedans are the only ones come to mind Saab 9-3 too but blah Anyways, I don't understand why someone would buy a performance car if they aren't going to take care of it. You're only setting yourself up for engine failure after your warranty is finished, leaving you with a major bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
