[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous](Please don't go and buy it haha) [b]I am tight on funds and need a very affordable car.[/b] I like the sliding doors because I have a toddler and car seat wrangling in these DC close quarters is nuts. I hear Mazda is pretty reliable. [b]I like nice things, like leather, backup cameras etc. [/b] I wish it was good on snow, but I guess I have to get different tires. I commute via metro every day but use my car a lot on the weekends to run errands and visit family 4-6 hours away. I like boxy cars because I always feel like I am hauling something - this or that from home depot. If Kia Soul had sliding doors. I would like that car. I like this low price point bc I can pay cash, and also the Arlington CO taxes will not kill me. I estimate that worst-case I could get 5 years out of this car. Assume they sell it to me for 6k, that is $1200/year, plus about $25/mo for the Arlington Co taxes. Ok, so, $125/mo, plus a safe estimate of $600/year for repairs, so that is another $50/month, for a total of $175/mo to drive, worst case scenario. What do you think? https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/l-Used-Mazda-MAZDA5-Alexandria-d840_L36592#listing=196604950 [/quote] I think you need to reassess this combination of requirements. [/quote]
