the 07 camry's served me well but i'm thinking it's time for something new, what do you guys look for in a car?

Air conditioning and 4x4 are my two main requirements....

The real question is.....what do YOU look for in a car.


Our preferences don't represent yours.


For example:

Budget
Make
2 door/4 door
Performance vs commuter vs hybrid of both
Specific amenities
Seasonal
...

Depends on the moment in my life...

Right now, I'm looking for

Reliability
Gas milage
safety ratings
low maintenance cost
comfortable

Anything that can carry me out of bronze

impossible

but for real what do you need the car to do because what most of us look for are probably not what you're going to want for an everyday fuel efficient car

Performance on 0-60 stop and rolling vs cost.
Stock sound, etc
Brand/quality / how far its in the gen
Comfort

Corner handling, reliability, low running cost

Interior is a big one for me now
Exterior
Power
Comfort
Brand for sure
Age

Are you asking me personally or duff?

For me its:
Looks Exterior (I like aggressive, but with the hint of elegance; not full bolt on race car)
Looks Interior
Fun (Handling/Speed)
Usable as a DD (at least through 3 seasons and can handle light snow)
Bragging Rights (Brand/Rep/power/etc)
"Cool" Features (HUD, creature comforts, etc - usually available on fully loaded cars)

I never buy old cars nor used cars, age isn't a factor.
