Car recommendations please!?

Hi everyone! I'm looking to get a newer car in a few months and I'm doing a little research on cars so I know which one might be best for me. Currently I have a 2 door 2003 Chevy Caviler sport coupe that has 125K on it. I love my little car, however I want to start a family in the next year and a car w/ 4 doors just seems that it would be a lot easier

I don't want to spend too much. I figure between my down payment (I want to put down $3000) and my trade in (hopefully at least $1000) I want the difference to be between 10-11K.

I really like the Nissan Versa Hatchback I would want a hatchback or sedan. I really don't want a coupe, minivan or suv. Especially the way the gas prices are now! I need a car that would be really good on gas and of course has power locks/windows, etc.

Any suggestions would be great. Thanks so much and enjoy your weekend! :)

Well just to let you know, it doesnt matter what kind of car (ie: hatchback, sedan, coupe) as long as it has a small 4 cylinder engine in it. My father has a 2004 Dodge Neon SRT-4 that gets 31mpg and has 280HP. If you really want better mileage then that, try to find a Honda Civic or Accord, those are both very good cars.

A Versa would be the least costly, initially. However the Honda Fit gets good reviews by auto writers.
I am in favor of five door hatchbacks. They are versatile. Also you can clean the inside of the rear window without straining your back or shoulder.

I actually have a Honda civic 4 door with new child locks. My 3 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous sits at the back of the motive force seat. i in my view advise a 4 door motor vehicle, it extremely is plenty much less annoying to circulate out and in with a new child that way. A 2 door is plenty harder to artwork. you finally end up hiking in to get the youngster or contorting your self to place the vehicle seat in. Very annoying. As for secure practices helpful properties, my motor vehicle is older so the LATCH equipment replaced into no longer around yet. yet LATCH is solid, Childproof doors are needed in my strategies. would not want your toddler to open the door at sixty 5 mph down the line. i in my view advise a Honda, they're large autos, have a lot of room and run for ever. maximum suitable of large fortune!
