well I am currently thinking about getting a new daily driver, I have always been the type of person to buy something around 10 years old so that its cheaper, but now I want to buy something newer to replace both my daily driver and my “fun” car,

im looking to spend around 20,000 (25,000 at most)
want something 2008 or newer (better finance rates and terms)
awd preferred
want something i can do basic upgrades without reliability issues
has to be reliable and be able to be driven year round’

I’m a big Honda fan but it doesn’t seem any of them are meeting my requirements, i will most likely be buying the vehicle at wholesale prices through my dealership

any ideas, the only vehicles that I wont think about are VW and Audi

what’s your dealership?

Audi A3, S4
VW R32
BMW E90/92

2009 WRX

i was thinking about a wrx, but honestly after seeing all the ring land failures it really worries me… a coworker had 22k on his sti and it needed a rebuild already

i work for a toyota, scion, hyundai dealer

pretty sure the sti failures were worse than the wrx ones…the 09 is a newer motor I think, I would do some research.
