Well, I finally purchased a new auto to replace my '95 GL Contour. My daughter is now in possession of this car (freshman at UT) After spending 1 month looking at different models, prices, etc. (I wanted basic transportation that wasn't too expensive for driving to the office and back), I purchased a 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier LS Coupe. I liked the price (3000 rebate). It drives fine and has plenty of room, plus with this model almost all options are included. After purchasing a consumer reports auto report on this model, I was finally able to get it to a price that I thought was great! My drive out cost including ttl was $12,900.00.
