For those of you who check out the "car sale" section, you know I'm trying to sell my Integra. Long story short, I'm going into business where I need a daily driver for my work. I'll be doing alot of driving around Metro Atlanta. I've been looking around trying to find some but only have a couple of ideas. I'm looking for something good on the mileage, around $5-6K, and not a complete turd. I'm leaning towards an EK hatch.

What do you guys think?

Unfortunately I'm not looking for another boosted vehicle. I'm looking for another car because my Integra is not an ideal daily driver. I guess I should have elaborated. It's a 99, turbo, LS/VTEC, JDM front, loud, blah, blah, so on and so forth. I'm looking for something to get me from point A to point B. If the business venture goes well, I can buy something else on top of my daily driver.

or a Nissan Maxima - or a Toyota Corolla or a Honda Accord. Not a turd, but more luxurious and comfy for a DD

Yaris would be great too...stylish and economical. It's pretty loaded for an entry level car too isn't it?

4 cylinder Ranger. You know why, killer gas mileage, great for packaging stuff in the bed, and you can go on dirt roads, over sidewalks w/ ease, thru creeks lol, etc. There engines last easily over 200,000 miles.

That's not a bad idea. I don't think i'll be doing any off-roading or driving over anything crazy. I'll just be going to bodyshops and peoples houses. I guess depending on whose house I go to, I might have to drive over sidewalks or dirt roads.
