which car for $35k?
I'm trying to help my family look for a good car to buy for ~$35k or less.
has to be automatic, 4 door, brand new, and of course reliable.
no SUV, no truck, and no van. no fwd :]
It wont be used for motorsports lol, but for commute around town from day to day. Don't Need top of the line hp and lbs of torque, but would be nice.
currently considering Lexus' is250 and the Subaru Legacy. Too bad STi's dont come in auto huh lol..my grandma will be driving this car the most i think.
any suggestions, ideas, or info?
TIA for your help!,

The IS is a very good value for a Lexus. My friend has an IS350 and he loves it. I've ridden in it for hours when I was hanging out in So Cal a month ago and when he came up here to visit. Very comfortable ride and the car picks up pretty quick for an automatic. He just broke it in and one time, he punched it on the freeway. It was pretty impressive. There's a lot of little knick knacks and minor nifty features that you have to see for yourself when you check out the car inside and out.
