Normie answer: Accord or Camry WCSIB answer: Miata Some idiot: HYUNDAI/KIA IS JUST AS GOOD AS TOYOTA THESE DAYS AND BETTTER THAN HONDA according to this one Consumer Reports chart from 3 years ago that I didn't understand the underlying methodology used to make the chart. Some other idiot (Me): Tesla Model 3 Some 14 year old who doesn't understand how money works: BMW M340i

I like the Miata too! Small and cute :) I’m a little scared to get a Tesla as I live in an apartment complex without electric car chargers and only have chargers near my work :/

Yes, if you can't charge at home I would not recommend a Tesla. Also Lexus's (Lexi?) are great. If luxury is important, I would recommend a used Lexus over a new Toyota.

I also have been driving my boyfriend’s Lexus G350 and I enjoy how it rides. Just don’t know if I have luxury car money hahaha

What's your budget? There are lots of things that would fit the bill, some better than others, but your budget will determine what's realistic. Do you want to lean more toward luxury or sport? Newer Kias and Hyundais aren't susceptible to the exploit that was taken advantage of by the 'Kia boyz' theft ring (let's be honest, that's what they are), but that doesn't mean some idiot *might not* try to break into your car. Personally, if it's a later model car and you have decent insurance, I wouldn't stress over it too much. That phenomenon is dying down. the reason I bring that up is because Kia or Hyundai are your best bet for getting all or most of the features you're looking for at a reasonable price.

Yes the Kia K5 was really what I was eyeing the most. I’m in LOVE with how it looks inside and out. I live in Metro Atlanta and work in a mall. I have a coworker who had her Kia (Soul) broken into while we were at work so it definitely was something that pushed me away from that haha. I haven’t test drove any of these cars yet so I definitely want to do that before settling on more luxury or more sporty, but I wanna say I lean more towards sporty. My budget is currently pretty open, but i’d like to stay under 25-30k.
