Here's how it goes:
Budget: $30,000
With this amount of money you need to find a car that is economical, inexpensive and reliable - and especially safe.. You may be as creative as you like, sports cars count, but keep in mind they must be realistic at least.
You cannot list a used car - it must be brand new.
For me, I would look into a 2011 Mini Cooper S. Sporty, economical, great on fuel - and very reliable. Also incredibly safe.
Your turn.
