    New car suggestions

    Hey yall! As most of you know I'm a college student who currently commutes 45 minutes each way everyday for school and work. As yall also know I have a 6g72 8g that gets like 21mpg, I'm looking to get something new in the compact/subcompact class that's better on gas and is "fun". Hopefully with a second car i can also do some bigger things to my girl (like suspension work, trans swap and possibly a turbo down the line) and not have to worry about finishing it before work/school the next day. I know most of yall have more than just a Galant and I'd like to know if any of you would suggest looking at any specific cars!

    I only have Galants lol!

    And the family car to go out which is a 2004 Tahoe that won't help your fuel situation.

    I vote get a 4cyl G. Lol!

    Blue 8g remember I warned you lol (prepare for a heart attack)

    I haven't broke 12-16 mpg since I have owned EITHER of my 7g's

    I agree with a Fit, they are cool cars, Or a civic as they also get fantastic mileage. Or a Miata, they are cheap to maintain and work on and get great milage.

    I average 21.

    I never saw the gas savings between my V6 3G and I4 8G. On the freeway 320 to 350 a tank.

    Sweet I'll add the fit and civic to the test drive list! I've always been partial to Mitsu's so I'll compare those to the Lancer
