Best 'family' car for $15k

[thelinja]

Well my mom is getting a new car in August and wants me to find one for her. She doesn't want to spend more than $15k and the car must be newer than 1999. I was thinking Altima, Maxima, Accord, or Accord Cpe. Any other suggestions?

Get a Camry, I drive a 2001 Camry (since I never seem to have my car:wtc: ).

I love that car, you'd be surprised at the compliments I get from people about it. But I Love it and its a great ride for carrying a lot of people.

Maximas are more sports oriented. You could get a 2002-2003 Sentra for 15K prolly.

The accord is a good all-around performer.

I assume you're referring to the V6 coupe?

Yeah, I really like the way Camrys look. I almost forget about those. Thanks for mentioning them.

Yeah, sorry. I just saw the 12 month road test of the 2003 V6 on motorweek update. They said 23MPG, 240HP, comfort like a luxury car and other things. The only bad thing after soo much driving was a stuck door lock button on the drivers side.
