I think I have only kicked the rear out twice, just to kinda get an idea of what it would take. VDC has been on 99.99% of the time lol.


Half the car has been waxed with Griots Best of Show liquid wax. I decided to skip the sealant and try out some of the goodies I bought recently

So something sporty, auto, white, hatch, and slow

VW Golf? They're ugly IMO. I'd take a Fiesta/Focus/Cruze anyday over a VW

2013 Volkswagen Golf Base, $14,995 - Cars.com

This is literally the only other car I can think of. Also, look around for a certified pre-owned. Trust me when I say that I went insane looking for a used Z. I got mine which is an 09' with 18k miles on it with a 4 year (48k) bumper to bumper warranty straight from Nissan since it was a CPO.

Nope, ugly and probably too small. :/ I did a local Fiesta search and nothing came up for used. I'll have to look at the Cruze.

Cruze is not a bad family car. Its not a break your neck looker but what reasonable family car is? Good room for hauling crap. Are you guys keeping the 350?

I forgot the Cruze is sedan only. I meant to say the Chevy Sonic. I linked one that I found in my previous post.

For now, that's the plan. I was going to just pick up a 2014 Sentra SR since a local dealer has a lot of inventory still. But I know I'd probably be happier with a hatch/wagon style that will look decent with some black accents.
