What luxury cars get great gas mileage?
Ara
Looking for 2010, 2011 or 2012 luxury car for around 30,000 with close to 40 mpg. My wife and I don't want to settle for a Prius or Civic, but we do want good MPG because we drive so much. Is this possible without spending too much more?
Answer
If you take a closer look at the Prius, you'll see that you aren't "settling". It has many of features only found in luxury cars. It's a mid-sized car, not a compact like the Civic, so room is not a problem.
Note that decent luxury cars start at about $45,000.
My 2004 Prius has cost 12 cents per mile for dealer maintenance, tires, and fuel combined over the 120,000 trouble-free miles I've driven it so far.
My 2004 Prius MPG from the logbook. (Complete years only):
2003-2004 -- 50.8 mpg 17,628 miles
2005 -- 52.6 mpg 14,688 miles
2006 -- 56.3 mpg 16174 miles
2007 -- 57.3 mpg 18384 miles
2008 -- 59.9 mpg 21755 miles
2009 -- 61.4 mpg 16177 miles
2010 -- 65.2 mpg 12134 miles

What is that car door part called that helps you close door without you having to use forece?
Tigran
There is this thing in luxury cars where you close the door but not having to close it hard and once the door touches the fitting it automatically pulls it kind of like a magnet. Please tell me the name of the part. Thank you.
I'm not talking about a specific car that already has one. I'm talking about the name in general so I can do my research and find 1 made that would be compatible with my car. I was thinking of putting that on a classic mustang.
Answer
ok well its not a magnet. it is some sort of power assist motor. what kind of vehicle is it most any dealer parts dept will know exactly what you are talking about then you can go to your local parts store n get it. in fact they should know too
