Well, I think the wife and I have narrowed down our choices for her new car. Nissan Sentra SER or Mazda Protege' ES. Either would be Automatic (I know, I know...don't get me started), but we are leaning towards the Protege' because:
1-Better Resale
2-Better Quality
3-Slightly Cheaper (Not really a concern)
4-Better fuel milage (Unfortunately 35hp less

)
5-Better looking Interior/Exterior (Our opinion.
Anyway, the car Fully loaded with 6-Disc CD, MoonRoof, Full power, Perimeter Alarm, ABS, Automatic Tranny with Sport-Shift, 16" wheels, etc, etc will cost around $17,500 after IBM S-Plan discount (similar to Ford's X-Plan) and $500 new-graduate discount. Mazda is also offering 0% financing or $1500 cash back!
Does anyone have any opinions on this car?
