Default So What Do You Think About This Car's Price?

I'm seriously looking for a car now to replace my leased Kia Sorrento.
I want to buy and not lease. I like the Audi's and like the Ford Fusions

Audi all damn day. ALL day. The Ford is a four door for one thing. Your girls are grown up, ignore all four door vehicles from this day forward.

Ya I hear that. The thing about the Fusion is that it's 2 years newer than the Audi for the same price. I do like the Audi's though.
I got my Bimmer at this place and it still had factory warranty left on it, as do most of the cars they sell.
I have until September to poach something from here or elsewhere.

Personally, I'd love to lease since I seem to be on a three year cycle with my daily drivers. The problem is mileage. I put on too damn many miles a year for a lease. And forget buying new when you're ditching them in three years.

I didn't even click on either link, only looked at the referenced car models. I 100% agree with Thomas.

Is the Audi comparable to the BMW 3 or 5 series? I imagine it was a leased car? I would test drive them both. I took a test drive of the low end Audi a few yrs. ago. I can't remember the name/number, it may have had a turbo 4 cyl.? I wasn't impressed with it. The models above it, yes.

My wife really likes this one.
Not bad....

2013 Used Subaru BRZ 2dr Cpe Limited Man at North Coast Auto Mall Serving Bedford, OH, IID 11688472

Although for as many times as she's gone over parking bumpers and tore off the front air dams on both cars, this may not be a good idea.

Ya, and my wife can drive. I'm just afraid of the speeding tix she'll acquire with it. She loves the stick.
She had a Celica GT with a stick when we got married and loved it. She likes this one a lot
