I am currently without a car at the moment, due to some stupid mistake with my insurance company I had to turn in my plates for a year. I do NOT feel like going into details. I sold my daily driver a 2000 Dodge Stratus sedan late summer. I currently have about 4 grand in my bank, and i should get more than double that when I get my new plates in june of 08
. I have narrowed down the choices, which one do you guys like the most? remember this is for a daily driver to and from work and other stuff.
97-03 Pontiac Grand Prix coupe GT: (cant afford the gas for the supercharged model
) I am not sure which was the last year for the choice of the coupe or sedan only body, i would want the coupe. all the non supercharged cars had a very nice 3.8 205 hp V6 engine.
00-05 Monte Carlo LS or SS: my dad has a 04 LS with a very nice smooth 180 hp 3.4 V6, i would either get a LS like his or a SS with the same 3.8 as the GP
2001-? Dodge Stratus Coupe or Chrysler Sebring Coupe: based on the 3rd generation Mitsubishi Eclipse. could get a 170hp inline 4 or a 200 hp V6. my brother had the previous generation Sebring and it was a VERY nice car, leather, moon roof, power everything, 17" rims
2001-2007 Chrysler Sebring Convertible: i always wanted a convertible, and from all the sites and magazines i have visited and read, said it was one of the nicest drop tops on the market.
I realize these are all front drive cars, I live in a small town in NY near Lake Erie and we get NAILED with snow in the winter, so front drive is a must. any opinions on these 4 cars? I have looked at others, but these are the ones i like the most and will be easy to afford come June, and will be good on gas (my dad gets about 27 mpg in his Monte
).
