I will be getting a new car some time very soon. If you had a choice, which one would you choose? All 2007 models.

1) Honda Civic DX-G - Coupe or Sedan.
2) VW City Jetta
3) Hyundai Elantra - I'm not so keen on this car but my parents has a friend who works at a Hyundai dealership.

All three are reliable, fuel-efficient. I don't know too much about cars so I thought I'd ask what you guys thought. The vehicle will be used mostly in Langley/Surrey area with occasional trips to Vancouver.

Thanks.

Jetta for sure.

But get a Civic if you want to blend into the 4 billion other people and their dogs, who all own Civic's. Or buy the Elantra if you want to look like a 36 year old virgin.
That's what she said.

The Jetta is amazing, get the TDI though. I drive an 06 Jetta, I still regret that I didn't get the TDI.

if you're not worried about money, i'd go for the jetta.
if money's a bit of a concern, the civic
which leaves the hyundai out of the question - right where it should be.
Sig too big dude!

haha. That was Marco....not me.

If I personally had to chose from the 3 listed above, I'd pick the Civic actually..... :lol:
actually I dunno....I'd contemplate for a bit between the civic and a white jetta.
how much are they each?

Jetta, I own one, my dad owns one and we both love our jetta's they are very fuel efficieant and if you buy a tdi then it is even more fuel efficieant and disel prices are currently lower than regular gas...at least in the states...plus jettas look really nice.

Civic coupe is 17,180 Ca$
Civic Hybrid is26,250 Ca$
Jetta is 23,475 Ca$
Jetta Tdi is 26,750 Ca$

So between a Jetta Tdi and a Civic Hybrid there is not much of a price difference but a great quality difference, I prefer Jetta's and I coudl be biased since all I have driven is VW's but that's just me, I have experience and so does my dad...He is glad he has a diesel at the moment ^_^

The Honda, the motors in them are the best for longevity.

I beg to differ, a Tdi can go as far as 500,000 miles with out serious wear to the engine...that is with regular matinence...I had a Jetta that wnt 250,000 miles with out issues, till my ex drove it...that was a gas vehicle so VW's can go a long ways...

Honda for sure.

Jetta is nicer, but its also more expensive and the reliability is poorer.

Elantra is just not desirable at all.
