Suggestions for my moms NEW car.. Options

[Sh0gunkid8721]

I need some help finding a car for my mom. Her budget is 30,000 dollars at the MOST so it has to be under that. Got suggestions????

THIS IS FOR MY MOM SO I DONT WANNA HEAR EVO, STI, RSX OR ANY OF THAT.

[shin]

06 Camry? 06 avalon?

[Sh0gunkid8721]

I was thinkin about the Avalon...that was my suggestion, just wonderin if theres anythin else out there?

[jdg371]

I second the Avalon their the shizznit.. Im thinking about rentin one for my Ring Dance hehe

[Sh0gunkid8721]

I got my list narrowed down to

06:

Avalon
TSX
Accord

[Bigmeanbulldog55]

Honda CR-V. My mom has one and she loves it. I love that thing too. Parts are really cheap, and it's been very reliable. AWD too. Easy to work on. Her's is a 98, so it's a little underpowered. They aren't ment to go fast, but they get good gas milage and they're just nice cars.

EDIT: New Jersey is cold and it snow, AWD would be nice and no one else has mentioned anything that's AWD.

AWD would definately be nice

the new audi A4 quattro looks good. 2.0 turbo tooo. but 28k startin price with no additional options. so after tax it'll be over 30k

[K-ESD]

my vote is for the TSX
second choice would be the Avalon

[JFrost9]

Um, im not sure how much these cost, but i think the Acura TL is probably the sweetest car for moms... I dont know how much it cost, i think its around 27k? dunno, but they are very sleak.

[shin]

TL cost 30k+ i think

[dstrbcelica]

i was gonna say the tsx..

i dont really like the TSX, but im a 17 yr old kid...my mom was actually wanting to get one of those Pontiac G6s... i think its the GTP edition or something like that...those are nice. and i guess i must have been thinking about the 05 TLs, cuz we went shopping and saw some around 25k.

[Benevolence]

Mazda 6 sport edition

[Sh0gunkid8721]

i would love for my mom to get an Acura TL but they start at over 30,000 i think. TSX's will be AROUND 30,000 fully loaded i think. But Audi's are nice but reliability is an issue i think. Im thinkin TSX i think. Its luxurious, sporty and has enough pep and is a sedan.

Are there any AWD cars around this price range? Cars and not SUV's. I dont think my mom likes SUVs

[dlx742]

audi a4 quatro

had one... best car ever

repairs can kill your wallet though

[creis]

05 v6 Ford Exscape, my parents have one and are very happy with it, I like it too, great car, good haneling and its pretty fast, plus has the other things like space and AWD

[Sh0gunkid8721]

She'll probably go with the Avalon...Touring edition maybe?

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Get a used Audi A6 Quattro. My friend got one on EBay and its a beautiful car....plenty of power and traction for poor conditions, and luxury and comfort to spare. Big nod of approval from me.
