I feel so honored that someone pays so much attention to what I say that they actually have to ignore me.You are on my ignore list.

then, people would be asking: "Where did my retirement funds go."When I bought my 2022 Frontier a few weeks back, my local Nissan store had a few new Altimas on the lot. One SV model was right at $30K IIRC. S models can be had for a few grand less, but they'd have to do a dealer locate for you.
Man how times have changed. $30K for a "budget" altima.
VW no longer sells regular Golf in the US. GTI does look interesting, alas I'm thinking 225/40 low profile tires are going to be a problem here. Even the Accord Hybrid comes with 235/40 tires... on an Accord???If I were the OP I would look into a GTI or just a regular Golf.
The Accords feel rock solid in construction and are very comfortable to sit in.Actually, I don't mind the front. I hate the rear.
Anyway, 0 available near me.
Yes these current prices are insane! I see hoopties that are one step away from the junkyard, and the sellers are all proud, asking new mint condition prices!And used car prices are what they are these days.
I wouldn’t feel honored if I were you. This is the opposite of a good thing and if you’re not able to comprehend that, that’s why you’re on ignore.I feel so honored that someone pays so much attention to what I say that they actually have to ignore me.

The 17" wheels (wrapped with 235/45 tires) on my BMW are all bent up, and this would be even worse.
I may have to stay with a CUV/SUV to get some better pothole protection - our roads aren't the greatest.
You're driving a 20 year old car. Why do you need to replace it with a brand new one?
Kia Forte GT
Corolla Hatch
Jetta
Passat
Civic Sport
Malibu
Elantra N-Line
If it's low mileage, it would be an excellent financial decision vs. spending 30K on a new car that will drop $6000 in value the minute you drive it off the lot.Because he doesn't want to pay $6000 for a 1993 Ford Taurus.

Some people are willing to spend more than the absolute bare-minimum for certain things. It is their choice.After 20 years the amount spent for parts and service will be about the same, yet you will have saved $15,000 up front.
Links?why pay $30k for a new one when you can get an identical 3 year old one for $15K?
What part of,Some people are willing to spend more than the absolute bare-minimum for certain things. It is their choice.
does that not imply? And why is a 3 year old car the absolute bare-minimum. Some people don't want to dump their money into a depreciating asset and instead put it towards their retirement. Now if you're rich and well off, that doesn't matter of course, but most folks these days don't even have an emergency fund or enough savings to last 6 months.It's all a trade-off between age and price and what you're most comfortable with.
The Jetta and Passat are, near me.We have already established that Malibu's are available on the dealer's lot. Are any of the others?
