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.
