i see white Xb's running around EVERYWHERE w/ business names pasted down the sides...
guess a lot of people see the big flat sides as good driving billboards.

Nothing used though... I want something new that has decent rear legroom, good MPG, low insurance, and that will last me 10yrs as a daily driver.
Anyone have any reviews on the Mazda 3 S?

My 1996 Legacy, on the other hand, is a manual & has the potential to get 27mpg.
That's when Mrs Oaf is at the helm.
I get about 22mpg.
But then again, I use the pedal on the right as an ON/OFF switch.

Seems like it would be a good buy $15,500, Good rear window for an Ad, 32/41 MPG.

Two good resources:
Consumer Reports New and Used Car Guides, and
Edmunds. com for price evaluations that are realistic and based upon your geographic region. Includes advice on rebates, test rides, etc. You can also use that website to price your WRX for sale.
Of course, test drive all potential vehicles, since you may be stuck with one you don't like, if you buy it on a whim. (Kind of like my first marriage) lol

don't get an LE...at least put out for the S model of not the more fun to drive XRS corolla...
but if you are looking @ a corolla...after driving both...i'd def recommend the Mazda3...
it's better styled and handles great for a stock car...enough power to get around and lots of features...only option i'd recommend on the MZ3-s is the Sunroof/6-CD package...the rest of the features like HID and body add ons are all per your pref...i paid around $18K OTD for mine in Feb...(but FLI played the take it home and we'll call you for more $$$ down or higher rate the next week...so i gave it back...bastards!)...
talk to Dared...he can point you in the right directio for pricing....seriously...MAzda3...NO corolla...test drive them and see...
