    The first annual: Name that car game!

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    The Rules: The car must adequately adhere to the attributes listed below. You are allowed ONE submission! You MUST include a picture and include a small blurb as to why you see it fit as a solid choice as "The best vehicle if you can only have one".

    Attributes:

    -Relatively fuel efficient (16 mpg is the cap without driving like grandma)

    -Performance (straight line, braking, handling)

    -Reliability (you would not be intimidated by owning this vehicle out of warranty if your yearly salary was the 2008 US median *I believe it is around $55,000 or so)

    -Maintenance (see reliability)

    -Repairs (see reliability)

    -Usability (enough space to acquire the essentials to survive *groceries* *beer j/k*, you must be able to safely get to point B from point A in it)

    -New/Used (this vehicle can be any year, make or model sold in the US)

    *the answer will be revealed at the end of the thread*

    Ready... set... go

    Without a price cap this thread is worthless IMO. Anyway, my choice would be the 335i. 380 whp with relatively little cost, good mileage considering the power, BMW reliability and handling, and good resale value (something us Audi owners aren't used too).

    It is stated in the reliability portion that you must be able to live with the car if you made the 2008 median salary of $50,000 ish. and you would be content owning and repairing this thing out of warranty on that budget? Let alone winter drivability with 380whp. Or even spend $42,000 on a car when you only make $50,000 ish per year?

    dude.. jesus christ go out to the dealerships and take some test drives. go to people's houses with whatever you're looking for taht are for sale. You've spent like a month here now asking for our opinions, all of which you've shunned. get what YOU want. we've basically expended the cars with the options you've asked for.
    I say S4, but you'd say, "no its not reliable." make a decision for yourself

    This is a negative, it's a game thread plain and simple.

    I'm sure she gets aroung 30+ mpg, c'mon that wing is so aerodynamic.

    Doesn't matter how much money you make, mods are inexpensive, some are MIY (make it yourself)

    No worries on maintenance and reliability, just get a new one when one breaks down or quits.

    Drive it like you stole it, wait why would you steal that?
