We are fixing to get my wife a new car and she is really torn between 4 cars in particular. I am equally torn because I am new to the import car market and do not know a whole lot about the cars she is looking at.

All the cars above are automatics. She can drive a stick shift, but DOES NOT want one.

Take all things in to consideration: price, practicality, peformance, gas mileage, etc.

Thanks!

 

Get her the new Dodge SRT-4 for $20k Brand New! One nice car at that price. Just think, for an extra $1 above sticker, you could stage one the thing and race your evo against it all day long.

Pretty cool chick car....

 

Hmmm...had not considered the SRT-4 but that might be a viable option...let me show it to her real quick and i will add it to the voting if she likes it.

 

yeahh.... go w/the srt... brand new good price and u can race her. if not, the prelude

 

srt 4 comes in automatic?

anyway, i'm not a fan of the new accords, but if you're looking for price, value, practicality, that's your pick. if you want performance... of the 4 up there, i'd go with the rsx

 

Good point. That crosses that one off the list so we are back to the above 4.

 

I just bought my wife a 2004 Mini Cooper with automatic, she loved it because it was so small, so fast, and fun to drive. It cost me $21k with a 4 yr free maintenance, 24hour road side assistance, 5 yr warranty in everything. You might want to take your wife for a test drive and see if she likes the Mini Cooper too.

 

audi s3 thats a cool one for your wife!!!

Man I love the minis for a chick car but she really isn't excited about them. I have tried to get her to consider one, but I don't think it will happen.

 

what is your overall budget, say 25000.the mini cooper would be cool, and you both would own a part of history as these cars come to America.I know where a mini can be gotten for 17000 brand new, and all cars that you have listed seem to be priced well here.If it has to be automatic, a Maxima,or try an audi, so you can have awd like the evo.

 

i say get the lude!

 

Ya MINI S is a very nice car and handles well. But if she doesnt want to drive stick , through her into a Altima 3.5s or the Maxima or im not to sure but you might be able to find a used 350z auto. Or a 2004 WRX auto.

 

I guess just ask her what she really want and go for it. They'll just cars, if she don't like the first one, get another one, if another one doesn't make her happy get another one until she is really satisfied and happy bout her new car. Just my .02

 

Find her an old Dodge Colt and drop in a 4G63!
