Some jerk hit my girlfriend when she was driving the car and the car ended up totaled. The car rolled over for four times but she was very lucky to live through it largely because the driver's side didn't get hit first when the car rolled over but the passenger seat next to the driver's seat. My 2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT (http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs1388.snc4/164028_1504865702362_1255856504_31257095_4531562_n .jpg) is now gone. :( So I have to buy another car and I'm largely undecided on which car to get (I don't want to get a new car of the same model for an obvious reason). So the new car I'm thinking of getting is...

A H3 for $22k

I don't want to go for a brand new vehicle as I don't want to get raped by insurance payments when it comes to it as I'm still young and still have time to own a Ferrari later! :p

First off, that's terrible to hear. I hope all the best for you and yours on that regard.

As for the cars, I personally prefer the 350Z, but mostly for the looks. Everything else is meh to me on your list. I'd never buy MOST new American cars (which includes all the ones on your list), for obvious reasons. Go with whatever you'd prefer. Since you're young and are dreaming for that Ferrari, you might want whatever is the most fuel efficient.

I decided to go with the Camaro which in end cost me $35k but it's a fast car!

That is one of the few American cars I would actually buy. :thumb001:

Indeed. The new Camaros are the best thing to come from the American automobile industry.
