Thanks for the ideas everyone. The Echo is a good one.. it doesn't seem to have many problems reported and even though it's pretty wack looking, she thinks it's cute.

She is giving it to my cousin..... he just turned 16.

 

that's just stupid.

what do used xBs go for? Read a report a year or so ago, when all costs are broken down they become the cheapest car to own/maintain at the moment.

 

Here you go:


* Fits her price range
* Superior reliability no matter how many miles are on it; it will not die
* Outstanding gas mileage

 

Can she drive a manual?

 

I can and I'm sure Mr Bellamy can also attest for the reliability. I see them janks come in that have obviously not been cared for, and have 250k miles, but still run strong.

 

Mr. Bellamy. I like this kid.

 

The dude demands respect. He hosted MTV Jams for christs sake.

 

What do you mean 'the dude?'

You mean, I demand respect.

I am Bill Bellamy.

 

You certainly can, shitty trannys with those and they're getting higher mileage.

If you DO snag one of those, make sure it drives 100% fine, comes with service records and have Honda do a full inspection of it before hand. Both the 4cyl and v6 models can be trouble.

They're nice cars interior/exterior, but the drivetrain is lame. I'd also just go for the 4cyl
