    What cars do you like?

    I like Japanese cars like Toyota, Mazda and so on, they really make nice car and it's affordable at my place. They tend to take less oil and pretty comfortable and safe to ride.

    Does Panama has their own local car or something? How's the price for the cars over there? It's pretty expensive at my place.

    Hi! Talking about cars, I like SUV type of cars because I am a sporty person. What I love now is the Subaru brand. It is in my wish/dream list. Aiming to have it the least possible time.

    I like small and compact cars, since I will receive driving license next year and I will be a new driver. So with a small car it will be easier for me in the beginning.

    Hmmm, my dream car would be a Lexus but considering the gas price these days it's getting ridiculous to have a big car. Diesel also went up and it's almost as expensive as gas. A car dealer once told me that if you don't drive for more then 100k km per year it's not worth having diesel anymore.
    For now, I have an Audi (the small one) and have been pretty happy with it.

    Looks like people are more considerate these days. Gas price will become a major factor for the lower income to choose a car. Only super rich can save money since hybrid car price are too damn high ! As for now just choose a small CC Japanese car ....

    Hey guys!

    I like SUV's because of its height compared to sedans plus it's more convenient at times. The ride itself may be a bit bumpy compared to others but it great for someone like me.

    Although I also do prefer sports cars especially the sleek ones that go from 0 to 90 in less than a few seconds hahaha!

    Yes vintage cars are really cool!...Cool in price and style. Although most are not appreciating it.
