Re: need some car advice
And now for the moment you've all been waiting for. First, here is the car I got rid of: before.jpg What you can't see in the pic is that the compressor for the air air suspension went out and the back of the car is not too far off the ground. The speed bumps at work were a pain. Here it is: after.j...

Re: need some car advice
I've made my decision! I'll make the big reveal tomorrow when I bring the phone upstairs and upload the pic. There is a tad bit of bad news. There was a lien on the car, so I have to wait for the dealership to get the paperwork saying it's resolved before I get it registered. I just wanted to post a...

Re: need some car advice
I'm back for a rare mid-week appearance. Through the wonders of the internet, I was able to check ot the inventory of several dealerships. I don't know how often they update though. I found some cars that looked promising. I then did some research on Wikipedea, and found these didn't have the larges...

Re: need some car advice
A dealership's first priority is making a profit and are probably not above telling somebody what they want to hear. I have more trust in people here, especially since there are car-people among the ranks. What I attempted to post last time was that I hadn't been looking really since it is cold out...

Re: need some car advice
I just made a post and somehow I got logged off. @$^#%^$%$%*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's see. Does anybody agree/disagree with DM's statement fat wide tires bad in the snow/rain.

Re: need some car advice
I looked again on Fri, and the newer Altima was gone. There was another car that looked promising. It was a 2008 Chevy Impala. It has a 3.5L V6. It only has 52k miles on it, and is $11k. The one major stumbling block is that I have been raised with a bias against GM products. My dad bought a brand n...

Re: need some car advice
I'm back. I've been busy with other stuff, so I haven't been looking around. I kind of picked up again since I had to take my car in to get fixed on Mon. I looked at the one site, and they have 2 Nissan Altima 2.5 coupes. One is a 2011 with 79k miles for $12.5k and the other is a 2012 with 38k miles...

Re: need some car advice
I'm back. I forgot what else I was going to discuss when I made the post above. You might check out the test articles by Motor Trend/Road and Track/Etc. for whatever cars get your interest. They usually do a road test and give you an idea if a car is 'performance' oriented or if it just looks the pa...
