Looking for a good, reliable car, good mileage a must. Something that is a comfortable highway car, doesn't need to be fancy, just get me around while not being an embarrassment to be seen in. 4-Cyl Accord? 4-Cyl Camry? Galant?. I need 4 doors. I'm tired of putting 110 miles a day on my A4. Want to save that car for weekend and spirited drive times

I'm looking at new cars.

handles better than my audi did - it can be a little rough on the highway, but thats what you get for handleing like that. I would certainly say you should give it a test drive, 4 year 50k warrenty, 97% japanese and fun as heck.

My little 1.8L 4000S gets above 30mpg and is nice and reliable. They're fun to drive, too.

What other car is as good as that and as big a that price range.

How about a new Hyundai Tiburon with the 16v engine...10 year warranty.

If you get the 6 then what's the point?

Reliable...well, parts are cheap, and it's easy to fix. Embarrassing? What do you consider embarrassing? :-P

Personally, if you don't mind paying insurance on another new car, an Accord is a great way to go. They are reasonably priced (go with the 4 cyl), and resale on them is incredible...especially considering you plan on logging 25K a year on it. They are pretty smooth comfortable cars to boot. I would get one...but I'm too cheap to spend all that money and pay for insurance on it to boot. :-) I'm pretty happy paying $350/yr on insurance on my beater...and if someone totalled it tomorrow, I'd probably get something old, cheap, and disposable to replace it.

I think the Maximas are champs in that dept, but Accord is an excellent car as well. If you totally don't care for sportiness, Toyota is your friend.
