The Bottom Line: Smooth luxury-car like ride without the hefty price tag, Reliable and almost zero maintenance/repair bill.

Review: Calling all first-time drivers, college students, recent college grads (which makes you poor), and maybe the occasional value-minded middle-aged used car shopper. Here's a great car if comfort, luxury features, reliability, and money are priority items...

Pros: ride and drive, used prices, ease of finding parts

Pros: Comfortable. Big trunk. Actually pretty good-looking.

Cons: No tach, no temp gauge, transmission geared for lower speed limits of the 1980s.
