What are you looking to buy again? Car, truck, SUV. We have started our research on small SUV's and it makes my head spin.
Car, pretty much stuck on a new or used genpu Mazda 3 or genpu MS3. I really like the Focus ST but it's just more than I want to spend. Plus I could get a low millage used MS3 for Sub $20k and it would take me about 10 years for the ST to be more economical fuel wise.
my list:
I did get a great offer on the new '12 s GT w/ tech sedan but now that car salesmen seems to be flaking out. Just not getting a good overall feeling on this and it's reminding me a lot of how the MS6 in Pittsburgh went. The s is the 2.5L so not exactly the best MPG's or power but it's reliable and for a fully loaded car @ 33% off sticker it's a really good deal. Plus there's a 2 hour drive to Canton and I prefer the hatch on genpus.
Nick's dealerships have a '12 Mazda3 i Touring Skyactiv
Clicky Clicky for pretty cheap and low miles. Blue isn't my favorite and again, would prefer the hatch. But a good deal is a good deal and of course great MPG's.
And they have 2 '12 MS3's a
VRM &
CWP w/ tech package, low miles and of course Hatch & Turbo! Price is high according Edmunds and KBB and there is
Local Competitionbut even if they come down I'm still not sure I want to spend that much.
and there's always the new Mazda3 i sedan to check out. I think the touring would put me somewhere slightly below a MS3, looks better the the '12 and could get any color I want. Just not sure about the radio placement, how cheap I want to be or if I want more power.
