Neely Youngblut: I've been thinking about buying a new or used car. Maybe a Anderson coupe(black matte) what kind of car would be useful and stylish for an 18 in college ?? Thanks for your feedback!
Scot Rotruck: stop your b*tching.let him buy you what he wants.if or when it falls apart then you can get a better car.but when someone is offering to buy you a car take it and be thankful....Show more
Jayson Brod: Any car that runs is useful.Style is a personal thing. If I was college kid I;d buy a VW GTI. I have no idea what an Anderson coupe is but I'm guessing it's some high end performance car that you can't afford....Show more
Hilton Paiva: google it.
Merna Fauset: How about a compromise? A Toyota Camry Hybrid - made in Kentucky (American made), but has 4 doors. http://www.toyotageorgetown.com/01camryhyb.aspBut be sure to check the VIN, as some of the TCH are still made in Japan. (Similarily, be sure to check the VIN of any "American" models a! s well - don't be surprised if they are made in Mexico or Canada or elsewhere and not in the US!)Most 2-door cars I've seen do have a back seat, so that limitation seems unlikely. Perhaps he's looking for a 2-seater, then?Another compromise would be to find a used Honda Insight - 2 seater/2 doors, but made in Japan.My main question is why do you need a car for college? Most colleges/universities have very limited parking, and often do not give out parking stickers to freshmen (and sometimes even to undergraduates). Most everything that you'll need will be available on-campus or within a short walking/bicycle distance. Check with your school (particularly the campus police) to find out if you can even have a car there. (Most college students tend to leave the car at home, and get a nice insurance break too. Perhaps your father is expecting this and wants to borrow your car while you're away, hence the restrictions?)Or will you be commuting to college or working a job o! ff-campus that'll require you to have a car through your colle! ge years?...Show more
Codi Manchel: I often buy repossessed cars from auction but you have to know what to look for and be prepared to have work done on then straight awayNew cars you usually take a hit of around 20 % of the value of the car just by driving it off the yard
Luke Kosch: In Ebay.com MOTORS ----these may be what you like-- 1---MAZDA MX-5 Miata SELLER ; Sterling McCall Toyota--convertible beauty! $ almost 11 grand only! 2---Volkswagen Golf HB DSG SELLER : Autos Direct Online 3---MITSUBISHI Eclipse SE SELLER: 'mikeeitup91'
Vernon Martorana: all i can say is the mustang...if he wants a 2 door car i could also the suggest the civic but he doesn't like foreign cars so i guess your screwed.
Alise Rutgers: It has to be the clear ones you can just stick on the window or paint or something like that. As long as it looks like the car could be a transformer.
Enriqueta Steffen: Go for classics.
Karey Dunken: well, if you can, convinc! e him that GAS is just horrible these days, and you would be better off with a prius. Civics are also good on gas, and they come in a 2 door. Honestly, if he is dead set on buying you a 2 door american car, tell him to get you a mustang GT, you have power, a convertible(if you choose that instead of the coupe) 2 doors, and ITS A FORD. Most family cars that are american made have 4 doors now...possibly a Chevy AVEO, but those are like DIRT cheap. My first car was a Mazda 6, and i loved it! until of course I got something better. Another 2 door american car would be the pontiac grand prix, or a new upcoming camaro. I don't know your budget, so i really couldnt do much extensive research. hope i helped!...Show more
An Cardine: It's not bitching, and yes I did acknowledge that it is very generous of him. In college and grad school, I won't have the luxury of buying a new car in a year or 3 if I can no longer afford gas. If someone offers to buy me "whatever" car I want, i! t is perfectly acceptable to ask for strong points or alternatives to g! et a vehicle similar to what I want.The question is what points can I make to him to make him consider a car I would prefer that is safer and has the ability to last with fuel prices as high as they are?...Show more
Lulu Bukowiecki: My dad wants to buy me a car for college, which is very generous. I can choose "whatever" I want. Still, he wants an American-made, 2-door car for me. He dislikes foreign-made cars, I don't know why, and wants 2-doors so I wouldn't spend time in the back seat, which has no basis. I've never dated much and put school first, so he truly has no reason to think that. Admittedly, he's paranoid I'll get into trouble and drop out since I've never acted up. He was wild kid, so he thinks everyone is (I'm not).I don't want the car he wants for me (the Chevrolet Cobalt), but I really want something safer and more efficient (like the Honda Civic or Toyota Prius). I'm at a total loss of how to approach him. He's always been a car fanatic (American-made! only) and is trying to take advantage of the fact that I'm not too knowledgeable. He didn't think I'd do any research and is offended I did instead of asking him about the different carsTurns out it's not "whatever" I want. Any ideas?...Show more
Branden Roddick: You may need to get it custom made. Contact your local sign shop and ask if they do decals on cars. If they do, you could get your decal in any color you want and any size you want. Getting it from a sign shop may also cost less than a licensed decal.
Nestor Klan: Honda's are very reliable, and have a small back seat too, so he wont have to worry about that.
