• Honda Civic (sedan under $20K) • Honda Accord (sedan $20K to $30K) • Acura TL (sedan $30K to $40K) • Infiniti M35 (luxury sedan) • Subaru Forester (SUV under $30K) • Toyota Highlander Hybrid (SUV more than $30K) • Toyota Prius (green car) • Subaru Impreza WRX / STi (fun to drive) • Honda Odyssey (minivan) • Honda Ridgeline (pickup truck)
