Get either a Honda Accord or a Toyota Camry. You'll thank me in 10 years when either is still running great and you have car decisions based on your wants and not your needs. My wife has an Accord and the only thing we've done to it outside of oil changes, 1 battery, and a set of tires is to have the dealer swap out the lifter arms for the hood. I think the Camry's V6 has a little more power, but the Accord's is fine. My wife's has a 200+ horsepower engine that's bomb proof. I remember when the Mustang V8 just broke 200 in the mid-80s!

I wouldn't buy a domestic car that has less than a V8 in it. I just don't think the American companies are turning out as good of cars as the imports. And import is really misleading as your Accord or Camry will almost certainly be made in the US.
