Buy me a new car
Not really. But suggest one.
No trade-in, got $30,000 in cash to spend. No trucks, don't need one.
Right now I'm looking at a Chevy Malibu.

It's a good car, either it or a Honda, they're bullet proof.

I do too. But the Imps are just a bigger Malibu these days.

Have you considered a Hyundai Sonota?
I bought a Camry a few years back and I really like it, but my parents spent thousands less on a Sonota and I like it even more.

I just got this itch last week. My options are totally open.
My friend's parents have a Sonota and love it.

We've had six of them over the years and never had anything like that go wrong, ever. They have all been Accords.

A few years back they adopted the same quality control measures that the Japanese automakers use. But they price their cars really reasonable and give you a 100 thousand mile warranty.

But I don't need a V-6. This is where my main concern is. I have one now, will I be disappointed with the power drop?

Depends on how much power you want. There's a big difference between it and the 4 cylinder. I will say, all except the current Honda have been 4 cylinders and we've been happy. It still gets 25 miles to the gallon.

I'd be afraid that one would come to life and try to run me over once the first drop of girlygasm juice hit the metal.
