She just purchased a 2003 325i Sedan with 64k miles for 16000 out the door.
I advised agaisnt it because I know how expensive BMWs are to maintain.
She still has until Wenesday to return the car, if she chooses not to keep it.

So I need everyones opinion on what you guys think she should get.

Please voice your opinions as they all would be much apreciated, after voting please leave a comment on why you choose what you did. Thanks.
Yo, I seriously think your moms might actually like that new Camry, but only get the SE V6 model with the stiffer chassis and upgraded suspension. Those things not only look good, but drive great. If she's not an overly aggressive driver but need something that has overall frugal on the pockets, the Camry is the way to go. Besides, those things are fast as hell if she ever needed to get away from someone and still get at least 28mpg highway. There's space for full sized adults to move around. I think the Camry is an overall good choice. Think about this, with the other said cars, you're basicly paying for the name.
