I hear the new Sentra will be going for about $18000. I have also heard the Mitsu Evo Lancer VI is coming within the next 6 months.

 

Erm make that VII heh. Sorry about that.

 

The sentra is out it just seems so family to me... I duno I will have to check it.

 

ive always had a small interest in the cadillac cateras classy yet sporty

 

The MP3 and Protege5 are nice looking cars but very underpowered in my book. Although the V-spec Sentra is supposed to be pretty good but Im not sure on its cost.

 

ACTUALLY... CAR and DRIVER magazine rated the MP3 higher then the jetta... Hmmmm??
I think it said handling was better and value was as well..

JUS a LiL FYI
