Best Used Car Buys for 2011

If you like headroom, don't get a g35....

Hey Alex, I'm in the market for a used WRX. Can you tell me some about your's?

I just got a 03 mazda protege es sedan for 7k with less than 55k miles on it. I love the damned thing, and I highly recommend looking into one.

If you are going to consider the Fiesta but need more room, wait for the Focus.  It has more room, more power, better interior and similar gas mileage.  There new torque vectoring system should also make it a nice handling car.  You should at least test drive one.  Upper teens or lower 20's brand new is not bad.

Drive something with history & soul. No idea what they are worth in the usa, but my money would be on a Lancia Delta Integrale Evoluzione or Renault 5 turbo. Why not drive something that makes you smile?

88 4Runner (not the best,but still thought i'd throw it in)-http://www.lemonfree.com/JT3VN66W6J0010382.html
98 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX-http://www.lemonfree.com/4A3AL54FXWE044992.html

Oh sorry the other car i mentioned is the 1998 BMW 740iL (I think this one modded just right would be a nice little sleeper,eh Alex)

Seriously bros, I like ur show a lot and think that those three, ur fav of them would be the best for his price range, think about it, any one of those 3 models in a well working condition will be no more than k That leaves k left to mod! Go for it, try lemonfree.com it has a lot to choose from for almost all of those.

Both are 4 wheel or AWD Alex both are awesome potential project cars

Really check these out!!!!!!!!!!!! 1988 4Runner, 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX

1988 4Runner, 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX are also 2 good ones that are reliable and cheap, also fun to drive

Hatchback? HELLOOO VW GTI new your looking at ,000 used..well within ur price range. Lots of power

ugly as fuck - f150
sho - not cheap to maintain
why didn't 300zx make the list

Can't believe that the 2009 A3 didn't make it on to the hatchback list. It just about perfect especially since Alex wanted AWD.

Definitely NOT a Porsche.  Yeah, you can pick the 944 cheap, but got forbid if you needed any maintenance performed on the cars engine.  Now the Taurus SHO makes sense.

Subaru SVX- awd, beautiful interior, not too nice but unique exterior, reliable and it's a BOUSSS

Nice show guys.  I always valus your insight because I have the same passion for cars, With that said, I have some answers for your answers.
Sports Car: Porcshe 944 is a nice pick but if you want the performance, heritage, driveability, tunability and reliability, go for a 90-96 Nissan 300ZX TwinTurbo, hands down.

Sedan: Infiniti G35. Excellent Choice!  Rear Wheel Drive, Reliable, Bullitproof Performance Engine. I own one.  Done.

Hatches/Coupes: Ford Fiesta is a good choice but this is where I'd go german.  The VW GTI because it is affordable, fun, reliable, practical.

SUV's: Toyota 4-Runner Hands down.  They retain resale and keep running.

What do you guys think of my choices?

Ummm.. Hello.. SUV's.. 91 GMC Syclone and 92/93 Typhoon.. I can't believe those were left out.

Too late for the Dakar Rally, Robby Gordon was disqualified for blowing a transmission pump. It took 5 hours to repair and this was a special stage and they took over the alotted time, but there is still Elio Salazar in the second Hummer. I got this off of NASCAR.com.
