Date: October 10th, 2017 4:04 PM Author: tripping carnelian background story goyim The new 2.0T Accord is just a sick engine. Avoid the new Camry. It's a piece of shit. Slightly faster 0-60 but the 50-70 time is more than a second off from the last model. It's bigger, heavier and slower and basically drives like a bus. The Accord smokes it. While I'm a huge Mazda fan the 6 is now dated and so avoid the 2018 model. 2019 will likely smoke the Accord though. Just don't buy the Toyota.

Date: October 10th, 2017 6:31 PM Author: soggy tanning salon What is behind your insistence that it be a new car? I think holding to that is a mistake. You could buy a certified pre-owned 2014 BMW 320i with 20K-30K miles for $23-25K. Or, go cheap, and get a used Accord or whatever for <$20K.
Invest that extra $7.5K-17.5K that you would have spent on the new car. Then, in 4-5 years, when maintenance costs start to pile up, trade it in and do the same thing.
When you factor in investment earnings on the saved $, maintenance, etc, you'll come out ahead. And the average age of the car you're driving over that span will be similar, anyway.

But the first reason is, IMHO, short-sighted. If you're going to hold it for 10 years, you'll have the newest tech for years 1-2 and then never have for a fucking decade. If you go the route I suggest above, you'll get something with most of the new tech in 4 years. |

I've never driven an R but from what I've read the RS is better to drive. comparing it to a GTI though the gti/R has a nicer-looking/more logically laid out interior (same general quality/options, but ford can't design an interior for shit), if you care about that

Honda Accord at $30k seems steep though, why not just buy a Subaru, which is a good car if you're having a kid.

How is a Subaru any better if you're having a kid? Do you mean because they have several crossovers? We don't need AWD here for everyday stuff and I don't go off-roading or anything.
