New car

[SlateTheGreat]

Hello all,


So my friend was looking to get a new car so I told him I'd post this up and do some research for him. He's looking for a newer used car that's got to meet a few qualifications:

1. RWD
2. V6 or V8 that's near 30mpg highway
3. Stick or amazing auto
4. "sports" car, i.e. very fun to drive haha
5. 10 or less years old or under 70k miles
6. Around $10,000

He's got his eye on V6 mustangs from the 2005-2010 era and E46 3 series.


What do you guys think are the best cars that meet those qualifications?


Thanks!

Slater

Mustang GT are in the price range 2001-2004.Fun car I just picked up a 98 GT conv. 5 speed gas mileage im getting 23-25 mpg.

$10,000 was my budget after I sold my MS3.

I looked high and low for a fun car for $10k and there's just nothing...at least nothing that's new and reliable enough for a daily commute (less than a billion miles, in good shape, practical, etc.)
