I know someone who just bought a chevy Malibu and they love it
Posted on 1/10/17 at 10:40 am to bama will rise again
I have several cars:
2012 Lexus GX470 (personal everyday car/work car)
2012 Honda Accord (wife's everyday car)
2006 Acura MDX (son #1 car)
2006 BMW 325 (son #2 car)
2006 Mercedes C230 Kompressor X 2 (sons #3 & #4 cars)
The GX470 is the most reliable and luxurious car but the Honda is very solid and gets great gas mileage. The Mercedes C230s are actually the easiest to work on because they are manuals (and fun to drive). The Acura has been a pain lately but son#1 has put over 100K miles on it since he got it 5 years ago. The BMW has not been any issue either but it was very well maintained when I bought it. Now I am thinking of picking up a manual 996 body 911 turbo as an garage/investment car because you can get a low mileage one for $40K to $50K range.

Well I think anything under 15000 is a good buy

Reviews don't mean shite.
Every Land Rover product I've ever had has been solid. They've got terrible reviews. The only "problem" I've had with my current Range is a front air strut popping, but that's a wear part and I put a lot of miles on it so it's expected.

I have a '12 Grand Cherokee and I love the car itself but it has caused so many problems for me with recalls, engine problems, etc. If you get a jeep, get a '14 or later. I beg you

Infiniti G37. There are literally no other choices. I've got an '09 and I look forward to driving it every day.

I had one of those for a bit. Fun car. Not as fun as my last BMW though.

Keep your truck and go buy a boat. If you want a fishing boat get a Lund, if you like burning fuel, get a Baja.

Dumb question but how do you go into dealer looking to price?
Do you say I have X down here's trade I want x payment
Or
I want X car I'll give x amount

Best bang for your buck sports car on the road. 2017 ZL1.
@jefffan...
Motor Trend did a head to head between the Camaro 2SS ($40,000) and the BMW M4 (over $80,000) and the Camaro was the hands down winner. Also, the Camaro SS 1LE came in fourth in their Best Driver's Car competition. Beating out cars that cost 4-5 times as much. The Mustang GT350R came in second. It is amazing how far the American sports cars have come over the last few years.

I know I saw the review too. After that I knew I had to have one.
I first test drove one in April, then again in August. Finally bought mine in October thanks to a 20% off sale.
I have an (almost) fully loaded 1ss. With magnetic ride and dual mode exhaust and sunroof. If I had my phone I would post a pic of her. Mine is rare too as it is Blue Velvet Metallic paint color, which is a 2016-only color. If I had 70k lying around I'd buy the Zl1 in a heartbeat. Driving mine is so fun and the noise it makes at WOT is incredible.
I'm going to put a tasteful body kit on mine and probably the Stainless works exhaust to make it louder, but other than that the car will remain stock.

Neither. You get pre-approved at a bank/ CU to see how much you are approved for. Otherwise the dealership finance guys will rape you.
That's what I did at least.

I hated that they didn't carry that color over. I think it would look awesome on the ZL1.
I will be looking to pick one up in a year or so. I am leaning towards the Nightfall Grey color wise.
