[quote=Anonymous]No to leasing, no to a German car, no to overbuying and over paying. No to a car that is hard to park, no to a car that gets stolen often, and not to a car that is expensive to fix and hard to re-sell. Get a small SUV if you are hard on the tires, have small parking spot, drive in the city often, and don't know how to parallel park. Most new cars come with great safety features. As a new driver you should be careful/mindful and not rely on the safety features too much. Any idea how expensive insurance is for you? How far is the dealership going to be and do you have a good mechanic nearby? There are super safe cars to be had for 0% interest from the dealer. After 5 years if your needs change, you can probably sell the car for half the value. Most cars are not that different. Once you get used to your car, all is good. You don't need to use every extra they have put in the car. In fact, you will find them annoying and will be fixing them as they break often. You need it to be wider for safety, low to the ground, tinted windows in the back to for the kid, probably hatchback for stroller, maybe 4-wheel drive. You need good acceleration on highway that Honda HR-V for example doesn't have. Also, be ready to be dramatized and ripped off at the dealership. Good luck.[/quote]
