Gonna buy new car
I probably wont trade my 09 370z touring non-sport but i can't decide on what i like. I'm not going to own another sports car or i'd basically like to drive a compact suv or just something different until i can save enough to realistically purchase that amg a45 or the RS3 when it gets here so for the next few years looking at the subaru crosstrek, maybe a used civic, i just teally don't know.
If you went from a 370z to a more subdued daily driver would mind sharing your opinion on what you got? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk |
I would probably just a get a civic and call it a day. Good fuel economy, reliable, and inexpensive.
|
370z AT without sport package to a regular car is like not a big step down.

can u drive MT? if so, a compact hatch with MT is pretty entertaining to drive, plus cheap and good on gas.

Think i just want something that other people dont wanna race for a little while. Used civic could be my ticket. And stick so im not bored with the lack of power. If i want a 700 dollar payment that amg a45 is tempting but im thinking if i cant put down at least 30k on 53k cost then i probably shouldnt buy it plus im having trouble wrapping my head around spending over 50k on a car anyway. Anyway, ive babbled enough. Appreciate the input. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk |

Hell, I'd entertain the idea of a used Honda CR-Z. The only hybrid I know of with a MT, very zippy, great handling, and definitely fuel efficient.
I almost bought one before going with the Fiat Abarth instead... Should have stuck with my original idea and gone with the CR-Z. I'd probably still have it. http://www.noblesse-japan.com/CRZRWp8.jpg |

What about a VW GTI? I picked up a loaded CPO 2013 mk6 with 8k miles (yes,8k) for less than $19k as my DD 6 months ago. It is a fun little car.

Very enlightening. Even new, a fully loaded cr-z navi is just under 25k. I really like the interior. Gonna look at a few up close tommorow. I dont plan on moving on a decision until january the more i read and look at the cr-z i'm surprised how much i like it.

I drive a 2015 Mazda 3 hatchback with a 6 speed manual. Very nice car and it is fun to drive. If you were to buy one, I recommend you look for a 2015 or newer and get it with the 2.5 liter 4. The 2.5 has more power yet still gets good mileage. If you want an automatic, get a Mazda 3 with the S touring or S grand touring trim level. they come standard with paddle shifters. One note. Mazda has changed options on the 2017 Mazda 3. You have to get a special option package in order to get the paddle shifters with the auto.

There's a reason you never see them on the roads. The hybrid system doesn't produce that great of fuel economy, it's not fast and at least used to handle like ****. The car was a complete slap in the face to the previous CR-X. Honda can't even give them away. Annual sales are like 1200 per year. Like with all quirky Hondas (the Element, the Ridgeline, the CR-Z, etc), there's a small cult following that adores the car... But for most, it's a complete disappointment. |
I am not a fan of many fords but the focus ST is pretty zippy for what it is. Gti also comes to mind, or a civic si.
|
Id add a fiesta ST, cooper-s, and also golf-r to da mix.

I read a lot of bad reviews on the CR-Z which I was originally looking at. Bad handling, Meh interior, etc. There's a reason they are discontinuing it. So far I love my Fit. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...a95772b793.jpg Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk |
I'm thinking about trading my 370Z for a new Chevy Malibu, maybe in the next few months.
Growing out of the whole sports car thing. |
I still havent pulled the trigger, the subaru crosstrek is my top non sports car under 25k commuter that im looking at now. I test drove an audi s4, amg a45 as best of both worlds z teplacement and great rides but just too damn expensive IMO. Didnt tealize how much ive reall enjoyed 6 years with it until you drive other stuff.
Everything i like better is just far mar expensive to either own outright or the regular maint is stupid expensive.. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using Tapatalk |
should check out the new Impreza wagon if Subaru. it is an entirely new platform and from the initial reviews it is far better dan the last gen.
only issue is dat dey are now made in Indiana... :ugh: aka quality issues.. or just save up a little and get a new WRX. WRX are still made in Japan I believe. vin should start with a J |

Do you have the CVT for the Fit. Heard Honda has transmission issues.

HEY!!! I was made in Indiana and I've had no quality issues Well. Maybe a few. |
If you have a family buy a Camry and be done.
Keep your Z for fun car. SuV If your gonna keep it..the new Kia sportage and or Sorento is worth looking at. How old are you btw? It seens your young. You still like Honda civics. Not insulting you but thats the common age brackets of civic owners. I owned a civic hatch back in my younger years. Young and aggressive. Which is fine. |
How about Altima or Maxima .. ??

OP Forget Honda. Lol |

Volkswagen, Hyundai, Kia, Chevy, Ford, and anyone else NOT using CVT. |
I commute 120 miles round trip everyday. My commuter is a 2012 Honda Civic EX-L with navigation. It's a 4 door, has plenty of room for passengers, a good size trunk, heated leather seats and gets great gas mileage. On the open highway I have gotten upwards of 44mpg. It's a perfect commuter and second car. I have never had a single problem with it. I highly recommend this car to anyone looking for an every day around town car or a commuter.
