DD shopping. $15k,GO!
What can I get for $15k, that I'd like to drive and wouldn't be crazy expensive to drive, aka Giant trucks and crap.
I'd like 4 doors and manual or auto.
Leaning toward a '07 and up civic 4dr.

Re: DD shopping. $15k,GO!
I had my eye on a evo 9 RS for cheap, but the no power windows and locks are kind of a deal breaker for me. It would be weird to get something newer with less amenities.
I wish it was a normal 9.
The wife wants me to get rid of the civic if i get something else and thinks I should shop around for that price range and see what comes up.
I did find an '06 acura RL awd with 67k miles on it. 3.2 6 cyl.

Re: DD shopping. $15k,GO!
RL is a good choice as well. Actually a lot of cars in that range. TL, G35x, TSX, LGT, WRX, etc.

Re: DD shopping. $15k,GO!
How far is your drive?
Jetta GLI or four-door GTI or a cheap Evo get my vote. Maybe an A4?

Re: DD shopping. $15k,GO!
Those RL look like they would make an awesome daily
Newer Lexus GS's can be around that range if you look around or some lower mileage gs300/400 would make a sweet daily too

Re: DD shopping. $15k,GO!
Right now the drive is 20 miles each way, we are building a new clinic in blaine then my commute will be 1.5 miles or coon rapids is close to 7-8 miles.
Here is a link to the evo I was going to get: http://forums.evolutionm.net/sale-ca...-owner-ca.html
I'm looking at newer civics, I love my wifes '05, comfortable, quiet, gets great MPG, cheap as fuck to drive and even with 164k miles on it it doesn't use a drop of oil.
I think a newer version in a 4dr. will be perfect and something I can keep around forever. |

Re: DD shopping. $15k,GO!
Test drive an RL before you decide. On paper i thought the RL would be perfect, but driving it was a snooooze fest.

Re: DD shopping. $15k,GO!
LOL @ Trogdor posting a link to a Ford Fiesta. Are you really hurting in sales this month? 
B-man, this thread titles says "DD". If you get an Evo, you will mod it. Don't say you won't, cause you will. You know its in your blood.
You want a reliable and nice DD? Get the Civic.
