    Which Car should I get? HELP!!!
    Going to get a used car tonight and gotta pick one.

    2012 Hyundai Sanata gls 28,000 miles rental for 15,000. Good price but do u take a chance on a rental. Anyone ever purchased one?.

    2011 chrysler touring 200 2.4 6,700 miles 16,000 looks sharp but heard shitty reviews.

    Sonata better on gas but many more miles but sonata is better overall car???? Really dont know much about cars all help appreciated.

    This is my first time askig for help in this forum and i have seen it could be brutal. Guys i need a car neither car is not an option lol.

    My wife owns chrysler 200 purchase new and it is a great car besides being hard for me to get into. I really enjoy driving it and it is very fast. Don't know where you heard car had bad reviews as my unstanding is that they are excellent. Employee discounts are available for new.

          Neither. Both are garbage. Get a slightly older SUV, Lexus or Infiniti, for the same money. Twice the car and will go forever.

            don't ever buy rental car.. they get beat up by renters and it's not even worth it no matter how new they are.

              Buy a consumer reports. They use actual science to test shit, not some anecdotal crap you'll get posting online or reading reviews. Id be willing to bet the sonata destroys the Chrysler in consumer reports reliability rating but ya never know.

                This.

                Edmonds .com can be helpful as well on pricing of new or used, individual car chat, pros, cons, etc .

                          neither!

                          people beat the shit out of rental cars. its like buying a cop car.

                          ur best bet is prob to get a used honda accord. Honda makes excellent sedans. my dad got an accord ls 09 last year with like 18,000 miles for 13,000 i think. he knows an auction guy. They are well manufactored. Hundai has come a long way i would usually go with sonata. but u'd have to be out of ur mind to buy a rental car. shits gonna start breaking on it because people beat on them.

                            It's a used rental car from a place like Hertz or Enterprise. Stay far away! I worked for a car rental place years ago and I wouldn't touch one.

                              I've owned a Honda Accord, Honda Civic, Acura RSX Type-S, SAAB 9-3 and I currently drive an Audi. Based on my experience with those manufacturers, you cannot go wrong with Honda/Acura. They're very reliable and require little to no maintenance.

                              I still wish I had never gotten rid of the RSX...
