Thanks everyone for your response/suggestions.
I'm going to go with my roommate to the automall tomorrow morning before work to test drive a few cars with him.
He said he will decide on something before the weekend, as he has friday thru sunday off and he wants to get this purchase done/over with.

He does want to go new, for the exact reason mentioned above, the ease of fiancing/low interest.

We are probably gonna go look at (possibly test drive if he likes to looks of) the following:
VW Golf TDI
VW Golf 2.5
Hyundai Elantra
Kia Forte5 SX
Mazda 3
Chevy Cruze
Ford Fiesta

and maybe the Impreza and/or lancer if time permits.
He personally likes the Golf, but likes the added feature/spec for similar price found in the Kia, Hyundai etc. One of his main concern as I mentioned before is Highway noise, and long term reliability, he is/will be driving from richmond to langley 5 days a week, and from BC to Saskatchewan possibly once a year. (Dont ask me why he doesnt choose to fly, its probably cheaper/easier).

Nehow, thanks again for all the help! I will let you guys know how the test driving goes tomorrow, and what he decides on.
