To start, I was driving a 99 Honda Civic si, and loved it. The problem was that it had a ton of miles on it, and after a recent move I'm now driving 80 miles a day to get to work and back home. I was gonna wait a few months and buy either a Mazda 3S 5 door or a new Civic. Since all the damn car companies were running family plan and cash back I decided to go out and look around sooner than what I wanted to. Basically, I ended up buying a Ford Focus.

And I'm a die hard Honda man, but for the price I got it for I realized I would never get a new Civic or a Mazda 3 anywhere near that price so I made the sacrifice because after I'm done with a car it's nearly worthless due to all the miles I drive so it just doesn't make sense to buy something expensive. It's good on gas, and it was cheap so I can't complain. The sticker price of the car was $18125, and after all the rebates and a dealer screw up I got it for $12565. It's a 5 speed, air, power everything, cruise, tilt wheel, and a few other options. Basically, all the things you need in a car. Next spring I'm gonna have to get some rims for it because I just don't like the factory wheels.
