Which car should I choose? - 1
I have a budget of approximately 25k-35k. Unfortunately my parents won't accept a used car, therefore, it has to be a current 2016 model. What I'm looking for in car is a really nice interior, decent tech options, and somewhat of sporty exterior. Despite this is being my car, it will sometimes be used my family as well. So I will not be getting a manual transmission. I'm looking for a car that stands out, but also has good reliability (as in it won't drain money just from constant maintenance). Feel free to put two options!
Ford Fusion Energi Titanium (Ford website shows this build as ~$30,000 - However I'm not sure if this is including the additional Plug-In Electric Drive Vehicle Credit of $4,007)
Mazda Mx-5 Miata GT (~$31,200 - Gorgeous car, but I have never driven a convertible or car smaller than a midsize not sure what my reaction will be once I test drive it)
Ford Mustang EcoBoost (~$34,500 - Red line interior, Magnetic exterior, & equipped with performance package - I know I know, I used to think it was slightly douchey, but honestly this is one beautiful car)
Honda Accord EX-L V6 Coupe ($34,700 - It's a nice car, but I'm not really a fan of how it looks and it feels like everyone already has an accord. It could be awesome, I've never test driven it)
Mazda6 GT (~$34,000 Same as Mazda Mx-5 Miata but would be convenient as a mid-size car)
BMW 228i Coupe (~$32,850 Beautiful and sort of beats the Cadillac on price)
I say get a car with a very reliable reputation and resale value. A Honda sedan of some sort will accommodate your family and the styling for most new cars now are sporty and sleek. And they pretty much all have those tech options and are automatics, it's hard to find a manual transmission from what I've heard
Get the Mustang, but skip the Ecoboost. Let somebody else be the guinea-pig for that.
Discuss this with the salesperson.

- 2015 Ford Fusion Titanium AWD or 2015 Honda Accord EX-L Coupe (4 cylinder). Which would you choose and why? Both are approximately the same price and offer many of the same options. The Ford, however, offers AWD, remote start, and somewhat better gas mileage. The Honda, though, is a car I absolutely adore.
