Help my friend choose a car.
 

Requirements:

Acura, BMW, Audi, or Benz.
Brand new.
Can drive in the snow.
$30-35k.
4-door.

My ex gf needs opinions.

And none of this... buy a old civic and then drop some 10Gs of mods into it and make a sleeper civic. The requirements are listed above!

TSX/TL. Great combo. They're FWD so you have an upper hand while driving in the snow over RWD cars.

They're comfy too, and um, well, yeah, stylish... um, high-revving... reliable, and they'll hold their value, unlike other cars.

So I guess she's looking for AWD or 4WD.

I think audi, benz, and bmw have AWD cars in that price range.

Audi S6 AND WHY IS SHE YOUR EX GF? whats her phone number?

how about G35X?

What's a G35X

A G35X is basically a G35 sedan with a RWD biased AWD system. It's remniscent of the ATESSA but is by no means the ATESSA system.

I think the G35X is okay I suppose, but I'd rather have the TSX. It looks alot nicer, plus you can get alot more out of your dollar. The FWD should do just fine in the snow.

Audi A4 hands down. I'm not going to suggest an S6 like that guy because it doesn't fall in that category, but an A4 w/ navigation and leather would be perfect.

A4 Quattro. Make sure it's a Quattro. Also make sure that it has a warranty. DEFINITELY make sure it has a warranty. lol. In fact, if you don't get any warranty papers, tell the dealer to shove it.

i agree with infinite...A4 quattro...is the way to go.

acura tL

used audi s4

Bmw X3

I'd get the audi a4

I'd say get a 325xi BMW. Such a nice car.

yeah...if you cant haggle down to your price range for a 330 xi, go w/ the 325 xi. theyre great cars. very roomy, powerful and classy. i think the redesigned version might not be as bad as the other redesigns either.

look into the saab 9.3 aero also. that is a nice car.

i say TL

Audi A3 but i dont think u can get them in the US yet. Or BMW M3

The new Infinity G35 Sedan ALL WHEEL DRIVE!! That's what I want

a3 isnt out yet. love that car though

So all these suggested cars have AWD or 4WD?

The ones that were suggested that actually fall under those requirements that have AWD are as follows:

Infiniti G35x
BMW 325/330xi
Audi A4 Quattro
Oh, and also the BMW X3. Sweet SUV... *drooling*

:sweet:

agreed :tup:

Audi S4 is a great car but as everyone knows Vw and Audis dont have great re tail values... and have many electrical defects....

I would suggest the Acura TSX....but if she doesnt care about re tail and what not S4 is the way to go

I'd go for the BMW X3 SAV. So nice. I am looking into one now actually.

They are all 4 door sedans and the 1st three are all wheel drive

**G35X = has a de-tuned version of the 3.5 liter 350Z engine & a 5-speed auto trans. Mfr sticker price $33,000 to $38,000

**BMW 325Xi = 2.5 liter 6 cyl with a 5-speed manual as the standard tranny. Mfr sticker price $32,000 to $42,000 (the 330Xi costs a lot more!)

**Audi A4 = 4 door sedan - choice of 4 cyl 1.8 turbo ($30,000 to $34,000) or 6 cyl 3.0 liter ($32,000 to $39,000), both with 5-speed auto tranny

**Acura TSX is only available in front wheel drive, but as everyone has said, it's a contender :)

:tup: to the g35x but i dont know of any benz awd cars for that cheap... go for audi or bmw 325xi acura tl is pretty nice tho

My thoughts exactly. :tup: Pimp car... :2pimp:

ive been driving an a4 around lately and they are awsome cars... better than bmw i think (i liked the whole feel and ride more)
