Economic, Reliable, Nice

If you had a budget of about 15~ maybe a lil lower or a lil higher, and could go get a car, what would you choose?

Pretty much why I'm asking, I'm buying a car this coming weekend, that's my budget to buy another car, of course it will be a loan with maybe a couple grand down Idk how much im willing to put down on it, but anyways...

Its a car for my mother.

She prefers 2 doors, and automatic.

So what would you choose?

So far we have been looking at civics, tiburons (she loves)

Just give me some other ideas on other cars to look at as well.
Thanks.

^ yah that is nice, were looking new.

IDK, a couple im looking at are

tiburons
civic
accord
bmw z4
350z
g35

the tiburon seems to be the best deal though, its a much nicer price then the rest, it would be brand new, the warranty is great, and my mom loves those cars.

idk, well see.

no wait....
there's another one if she likes Hyundais...

The Genesis Coupe...we saw one at Ferman Hyundai the other day... they're sick

edit: I don't have any of the specs on them... but I'm sure they would come in automatic.

Honda Accord. Civics are a bit higher on insurance, have a tendandy to get stolen and stripped, and are econobox shitheaps next to Accords.

Mazda 3. Friend of mine bought an '06 brand new for $16 and sold it a month ago for $14.5K. Unreal how well they're holding their value, especially in this economy. It's a pretty no-frills car, but they are a GREAT do-it-all car, and they look nice in hatchback form.
