2008 Toyota Corolla

I am a 33 year old female that drives a 2008 Toyota Corolla LE. It is equipped with a 6 Disc CD and leather seats which make the car have a comfortable seating. The positives are nice interior room, great pickup, smooth silent ride with good gas mileage. The only issue is with the trunk space which is limited but the back seat makes up for it. The road grip at times, in rainy weather, is suspect but probably due to the smaller size of the vehicle. Overall, I am happy with the Toyota Corolla and would recommend it to other drivers.

2008 Mazda 5

I drive a 2008 Mazda 5, I am 34 and married. The car is great transportation to and from work with an ability to park it anywhere. The interior is somewhat tight but has room to carry passengers. For a small minivan it gets close to 30 miles per gallon which is a huge advantage to the Mazda 5. The 5 is a economical purchase for those that need passenger space but want to minimize transportation costs. The third row seat gives room for 3 small children but the cargo space is minimal. Great economical value and worth the price for a family with small children that are looking to keep costs down. Definitely recommend the Mazda 5 is well worth the money.

2008 Mercedes E350

I’ve had my car for over a year and recommend it. It’s nothing super fast or over the top – just good upscale transportation. I have the black on black 4 matic which is the only way to go in Chicago weather. The only part of the car I would change is the GSP. My Garmin portable GPS is much better than the one built in. The GPS in the car gets you within a couple blocks of your real destination which can cause you some problems. Other than the GPS the car is rock solid. Also, I will never by a car with Sirius radio. Long live no commercials and Howard Stern – both make long trips very tolerable. You can find a 2008 Mercedes E350 at Autosales.com or Cartango.com
