[Shotimes] (OT) What cars do you find interesting? (for $7K or less)

[Ron Porter]

"My budget is around $7K, and I am looking for something fairly new that
requires nothing more than routine maintenance,
gets good gas mileage and has an auto transmission, but is at the same time
interesting and high in fun factor."

"Automatic Transmission" and "Fun Factor" do not belong in the same
sentence.

Off hand, I would say there is nothing, but you have to further define what
you want. Anything from a new low-end car like a Suzuki, to a well-used PT
Cruiser, to an older Miata (wait, scratch that....they are horrible with the
ATX).

Even our '95 Del Sol Si with an ATX is worth in the $8-9K range.

What are some of your considerations?

I am making a trip to the used car mall tonight to scout for a commuting car
to drive to work and school.  My budget is around $7K, and I am looking for
something fairly new that requires nothing more than routine maintenance,
gets good gas mileage and has an auto transmission, but is at the same time
interesting and high in fun factor.  Another SHO is not in the list of
options.  So, in this price range, what cars would you find the most
interesting?  This will help give me some ideas on what to look for.
Thanks.
