2001 Nissan Altima

Since this car is relatively old, you can usually purchase it used for a good price. Even after 8 years everything on mine still works beautifully. I've never had to take it in for any major repairs. It gets about 24 mpg, which isn't spectacular, but not too bad either. The limited edition version of this car comes with power driver's seats, which I love. It also comes with a security transponder inside the key, so the car can't be stolen unless the key is as well.

My only complaints are that it's a little slow speeding up and the backseat doesn't have much room. It also doesn't come with a remote to lock or unlock. You have to do that the old fashioned way by using the key.
