2007 4dr Sedan turbocharged 224hp 2.5L H4

I found a great price on my WRX from a private seller. Was in stock form and seem to run fine.
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Relatively inexpensive for what you get - only similar cars are German and $10K more.
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Very reasonable price for AWD, 240hp and reliable vehicle
2006 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Very reasonable for what one gets - at least it was in the 2006 model. At $23K for an AWD little wagon with 230+ hp, great reliability and lots of fun it was nearly unbeatable.
2004 4dr Sedan 165-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Negotiated 18K out the door, great value!
2004 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 2.5L H4
6-speed manual AWD
While the STi is not cheap by any measure, it will outperform many cars twice its price. It only has one serious rival in its price/performance class (Mitsubishi Evo). Otherwise, it will eat most other sport sedans for breakfast.
2003 4dr Wagon turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4
5-speed manual AWD
The WRX came with metallic paint (extra cost on the BMW), cloth seats (not available on the BMW), and a cassette player AND 5-disc in-dash CD player (combo not available on the BMW), offered higher performance and cost $15k less.

Subaru Canada, I have a question for you: why you charge 2k more here than in States? Give me one reason, please...
2009 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
This car is considerably more expensive than a Civic due to the AWD and turbo powertrain.
2009 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
It was a little more expensive than the GTI I bought plus the loan would have been at a higher interest rate.
2008 4dr Hatch turbocharged 305hp 2.5L H4
6-speed manual AWD
Making it every month !!!
2008 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
I feel the car is about 20% too expensive for what you get considering the poor quality of materials and low interior build quality.
2008 4dr Hatch turbocharged 305hp 2.5L H4
6-speed manual AWD
New and rare model made the dealer unwilling to deal.
2008 4dr Hatch turbocharged 305hp 2.5L H4
6-speed manual AWD
The new and relatively rare nature of the car made the dealer unwilling to deal.
2004 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4
4-speed automatic AWD
Expensive compared to other comparable subcompacts, but you get AWD, many safety features, and high resale value.
2004 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4
4-speed automatic AWD
I had a hard time finding a good one in the used market and it was impossible to get a deal because of the scarcity.
2003 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4
4-speed automatic AWD
Even old models with high mileage cost alot.

2008 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
honda lease rate is very good
2008 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
I got good interest rates from Honda. They also paid off the remainder of my lease on my Ford Ranger so I could trade it in 2 months early. There are also many options available on a lease. Overall it was cheaper than a similar Toyota Corolla.
2008 2dr Coupe 197-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed manual FWD
It is the "fastest" car under $20k and very fun to drive for the price. You do not feel like you are driving an "economy" car.
2008 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
While not the bargain they once were, Honda still offers good value for the money. Maintenance costs are relatively low as well.
2007 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed manual FWD
My Civic was reasonably priced and monthly payments are easy on the budget.
2007 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Not expensive for what you get.
2007 4dr Sedan 197-horsepower 2.0L I4
6-speed manual FWD
Overall total cost of ownership was far less than other sporty models, to the tune of over $1200/year, before even considering the lower price and less depreciation.
2006 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Cheap. Got it used from dealer for 16,000 w/only 3,000 miles on it.
2003 2dr Coupe 127-horsepower 1.7L I4
5-speed manual FWD
Lots of bang for what we paid.
2002 4dr Sedan 115-horsepower 1.7L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
This car was within my price range for monthly payments.

A comparable Civic is about $5,000 more than the Forte. Interest rates for 5 year plans were also higher.
2009 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
good sales people but not much in the way of discounts or coming off the sticker or dealing ,at sticker they make at least 1500 per car and they dont really want to deal any off the sticker and say they will sell eventually

Too pricey for what you get.
2008 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4

You can expect to pay somewhat of a premium for the name, compared to other cars of similar features/economy.
2007 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
In order to get the features that were comparable to the Elantra I had to at least get the LX model. It would have cost me close to $5,000-7,000 more to get an LX civic coupe versus the final cost of my Elantra.
2007 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed manual FWD
It costs more, with less to offer, than the Scion tC ... unless you can haggle them down on the price. And good luck with that at a Honda dealer.
2007 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Civic is a good vehicle overall, but Honda name commands a higher price with few cutting edge features by comparison to usual (Toyota/ VW /Mazda) and not so common (Hyundai / Kia / Pontiac) rivals.
2006 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Price was non-negotiable in 2006 it should be better in the current economy.
2003 4dr Sedan 93-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid
5-speed manual FWD
Do not buy a hybrid if you want to save money. It will cost you more than an LX Civic, even in the long run.
2003 2dr Coupe 115-horsepower 1.7L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
No room for bargaining, and the car was $4000 more than the Protege.
2003 4dr Sedan 115-horsepower 1.7L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
Have a high resale value, so it might not be on the top of the list when buying used.
2002 4dr Sedan 127-horsepower 1.7L I4
5-speed manual FWD
too high
