Suzuki's aren't for everyone, you're right. I'm sure a lot of other people will like the car, but after working on a friend's gixxer, I hated suzuki's with a passion. They're so damned annoying to work on so I'm bias lol.

lol that's a motorbike :P

I don't really like the suzukis... except for the WRC one... but I'm not gonna lie, they have a stupid amount of options for the small amount of money, and I wouldn't be caught dead driving one lol...

i think hardest car in buying a car is choosing what you want.

sure there is a large blend in the market including the cobalt, lancer, sx4, impreza, elantra , sentra, corolla. focus and friends at a similar price point.... but having it narrowed down to a civic and mazda 3 is the biggest dilemma.

Given the choice, I would prefer the Civic. The New happy Mazda 3 just really ain't my style.

I've driven both and can honestly say that the Mazda3 is more fun to drive. Get in in black so the smile is not so obvious.

The interior is utter blegh. Worse than a Subaru.

And what new cars would be in his price range with that combination?

He could certainly buy a used Bimmer, but finding a 3-series stick is harder than it looks (because nobody knows how to drive stick anymore). Plus, the repairs would blow his budget out of the water.
