Need ideas for a daily driver, high MPG, real high please and roomy..

That would be mine concern, but I usually do 15k-20k a year only, and it would be road trips that are the longest. Use those for the Z of course and average 35 miles daily for work and school and I should fall under the needed 12k limit. Though some have dropped it to 10k a year which I think is just crazy for a lease, but they get to make the rules.

You can always buy more mileage at the beginning of the lease if you know you are going to go over.

Good point, forgot about that.
Just went to Edmunds really quick, only deals under 200 I could quickly find were VW Jetta, Toyota Corrola, Nissan Altima. Honda has their Hybrid Civic for about 229, which might be a solid deal (need to work the numbers). Hybrid is a little more, but savings on gas and such might push it ahead of the others, maybe.

You would have some fun with that car. You can flick it around corners without worrying about seeing you back end coming around.

You could take my tC as soon as it gets off the boat from Germany.

Just to let you know my dad use to have a 96 honda civic and put like 50 miles a day probably more on it. Died at 408,000 miles on it they just dont die unless you have a teenage son that wants to drag race it.

Porsche Cayenne GTS.. lol

On a serious note though, look into a possible lease on a Jetta TDI as I think someone has said, solid car.

I'd personally buy a used nissan Versa, you can get the cheapie for like 12 grand. or a used one for around 7 or 8 grand. and since they are fairly new, the used ones are still low mileage.
