buying a new (used) car again. Suggestions?

Nothing American made. lol I'd suggest Honda, Nissan or Toyota. They last forever and since your buying a used car those would be your best choices and chances for nothing being wrong with them.

I also bought a brand new K-car and until it started rusting I liked it too -- between the rust and the squeeks inside the car I had to get rid of it before I lost my sanity.

I have an aunt that had a K car that she absolutely loved until it started to get old and had to get rid of it for the same reasons. Too bad they didn't last longer...they were very popular and seemed to have a following!

There's alot of small suv's now too if you aren't necessarily looking for just a car...My other aunt has a Honda CRV, it's perfectly sized, not too big, but it can carry quite a bit, fold down seats etc. she's really happy with it.

I think Hyundai has a really good warranty compared to the others? I know a couple of people with Sante Fe's that are happy. you could probably get a used hyundai still under warranty.

I'm only on my thrid car, didn't get my license till i was 33. My first was the New MINI cooper, it was really cute, a ton of fun and great on gas, sold it before the warranty ran out though...bmw owned so parts are pricey. Now i'm a Jeep girl, on my second TJ (Wrangler). Totally impractical, terrible for passengers in the back seat, no room for anything when the seat is in, but a ton of fun to drive. it's a second car so i don't have to be to practical luckily
