Car for my sister?
So it's time for little sister to start driving and we are looking at buying her a car pretty soon. What do you guys suggest? She doesn't care about cars so it needs to have good MPG and be relatively cheap. She would probably be better with a smaller car, somewhere in the 12k to 18k range.

If you want to stay in the GM family, the Sonic is worth at least looking at. Can get one for under $18,000 new and it comes well equiped. If looking used, then there's A LOT of options (too many to list) since it all varies base don model, year, and mileage. |

Used Hondas are a great bet. Great resale and reliable as heck.

Try the Dart or 200. Look @ Kia Rio I think - the one I rented was pretty basic but was good for a first car. Ford Focus/Fiesta I heard was good also. Had a 2008 I think focus in the family pretty cool for a first car. All of these that I saw came with iPod hook ups/aux good trunk space easy to see out of and good gas mpg.

See if you can find a used Acura TSX. Reliable as heck, easy to drive and very safe.

Ford Focus is a great car and you could get a new one almost in her price range.
