American cars arent bad either..I used to b an import guy too.. but i just bought a 2010 chevy malibu, its a great car.. great mileage- i easily get about 40mpg on highway, power for a four cylinder 4 door car is pretty good, it is roomy inside, its prefect for long road trips, its looks pretty good. GM gives 10 years, 100k miles warranty (whichever comes first). think about it. purchasing a car is a pretty big decision, do your homework. good luck!
