What kind of car should I get and why??

Alright I have everybody telling me to buy this car or that car. What kind of car should I get and the reason why I sgould get it? The car must have power windows, radio, ac, it will be a daily driver. I would pefer juan with HID's and a six-speed. I drive on the freeway to work and home everyday. Under $33k would be nice, I don't want to pay $600 a month. No HONDA CIVIC SI!!!!, don't post up a slow car so I won't kill myself. It doesn't matter how fast the car is, people can still kill themselves. Let's try to keep it on topic for this juan guys.

now why did you have to go there? you asked for an answer and you got juan.
fine mr big time baller, get a sti, a evo,a g35 since apparently 6 speed and hids are your highest priority.

our civic might be throwing cels' but at least we have a car, especially one that wasnt in an accident 1 month after ownership which consequently stayed in the shop for +6 months. we also didnt get the cliff diver edition like you. lets not even talk about your 'stunt driver' antics.

you want to talk shiet, bring it.

haha sure if you want the base model.

If you're going to get a TL then you need to get the full package.

I'm not looking for a small car, If I were it would be a tc. I'm planning on having the new car for at least 7-8yrs. So it has to have some of the things I'm looking for. I don't want any base models
