New car buying: Am I getting a good deal?

shopping for new tires

I had an 2002 ES, same tire size, I got the Kumhos off Tirerack for like $70/each, and they were pretty good. I'd save a couple hundred and get the Kumhos

Looking for used car for Mom

Yeah local GM dealer has a couple 2005 Malibus w/ around 30K miles, they are listing for around 10-11, not sure if we can get them down to around $8500 or so. The V6 Sonata is the one my Mom currently likes the best after driving some, just not sure of the Hyundai V6 reliability/maintenance costs

Looking for used car for Mom

Yeah Towncar is a bit big, looking more at Corolla/Camry sized. We found a Solara w/ 80,000 miles for around $9K, was hoping to get something with less miles though. However my Mom only drives like 6K a year so it's probably not that big a deal

Is BMW really that good of a automobile manufacturer?

I was a bit skeptical after hearing how great they were all these years, I finally took a test drive last month in a bare bones 328i, and I will admit, even without the sport package or many options, it felt GREAT to drive. The engine and transmission felt/sounded great, handling was superb...

Question for Netflix Subscribers

I put mine in my mailbox, usually it is back at the Netflix warehouse the next day and my next movie gets shipped out same day. For example, I just put one in my mailbox yesterday to be returned. It was received today and my next one shipped out today, and I will receive it tomorrow.

Just watched Cannibal Holocaust

The live animal killings are the most disturbing part of the movie.

Yet another new car choice thread

Thanks for the responses. The 2009 WRX is my top choice at the moment, anyone have any idea when it's supposed to start showing up? Even then I'm sure it will be hard to get for a month or two and I'll be paying MSRP, but we'll see.

Yet another new car choice thread

Considered it, but I'm pretty tall and didn't fit very well in it. As to the person suggesting a Mustang, I've never driven one but from what I heard they aren't the best handlers, and I prefer something a bit smaller/lightweight.
