Went car shopping for the woman....

I like the regal, that is a good looking car. Hadn't looked at one till you posted this. Not bad at all.

Nice car! Wish we'd get one in a 6 speed manual, that'd be a fun car to drive. Man I cannot believe the price difference. There's a lot of people here that drive down to NY and buy a vehicle since we're only 60 miles from the border. Yeah it's a hassle bringing it across with duty fees, taxes and all the rest of the BS but it's worth it. Walked around the GM dealer in Myrtle Beach in March and was mine boggled by the prices. Good luck with your purchase, the Regal is a damn nice car.

That price on there is about right for what I've found online. The dealer prices are around 35.

what about a 3.6L dodge challenger? could get one in the mid to low 20s with a warranty.
I have the 3.5L and i get 27 mpg highway, the new ones i think peek into the 30s.. (dont go by what dodge says, they purposely under rated it for some reason).

Because it doesn't meet a single criteria we set.

Its 2 doors, doesn't get 30 mpg, interior looks like cheap poo (not even regular poo...). If I was going to get a car like that it would be the G8, hands down. At least those look good, have nice interior, and 4 doors.

And the V6 gets about 33mpg.

The Regal fits the bill perfectly. Mom-mobile without looking like a mom-mobile. Cheap to buy, cheap to run, cheap to maintain. Looks good. Fun to drive.
