Yeah, getting the cars I mentioned in my previous post used would be under 10k, no doubt. The Yaris is def. one that alot of people look at now if it isn't the Prius. Something interesting to note, the Prius gains value when it's sold and used ones cost more than new ones.

Kinda funny. And irrelevant.

Get her a BMW Mountain Bicycle. It ran for about $3000 last time I saw one from BMX with a BMW logo. I think that's the lower end model too.

Find a BMW or get a nissian maxima, I had one as my last 2 cars and they were awesome. Fun to drive, good power, never in the shop once, extremely reliable even at the 110k miles I had.

Shame on you ... you cheeeeeeep son-in-law! :thumbsdown:

Driving a BMW but wanting to relegate your M-I-L to a Suzuki or Hyundai. Your wife should cut you off for treating her mother like that!

Show her you're the better man ... go for a KIA
