Apparently Poseidon's dad never saw the movie Road Trip. Never buy your college kid a new car. Never. Dumbass.

because clearly he was going to make a decision based on a comedy movie that came out 10 years ago

good thinking chief!

Depends what you want the car for.

You can get more junk in a hatchback.

Sedans are usually a little quieter, and your abductees can't kick their way out of a sedan in the way they can with a hatchback.

I'd put like an hour into trying to reason with your dad on the matter, back it up with some stats. You could save both of yourselves money and frustration.

Failing that, civic type R

Seriously, what's the difference in safety features between a 2012 Mazda3 and a 2009 Mazda3? Same body, same features.

But if he's stuck with new: Golf TDi. Great resale value, efficiency goes up as you drive it more, and it's a diesel=1.5 grand more upfront, but better mileage and cheaper fuel.

I like pie.

like i've been saying, it's dumb logic, but beggars can't be choosers. if this is what he's convinced of, i'm not really in a position to argue. and also not what this thread is about for the umpteenth time

i think we'll definitely be heading to the VW dealer as well

If $22k is your limit do not forget about the intrest of the loan. The banks want their share. So really you can only get a car at about 13-16k depending on where you get your loan and if you have a co-signer.

So is the car going to be in your name on the registration? Or will it be his.

Better keep a good record of driving. It will skyrocket if you don't.

Really isn't a good idea to insure a new car to a 20 year old.
