I have a 67 elcamino and I am trying to get rid of it but i want to find the right buyer. It is my baby and so want some car enthusiest to restore it or something not someone who's not going to take care of it. Anyway going from a v8 engine to a 4 banger is a little weird for me, and wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions as to what car I should get. I want something that's good on gas and really reliable. I was thinking about getting a Mazada, but I'm not really familar with the brand. Any info or suggestions will be much appreciated, thank you!!!!!

Go with Honda or Toyota.

If you want a hot little 4-banger with power for about $25,000 new ($15,000 used), check out the Subaru Impreza Turbo. It comes in a coupe, sedan, and wagon. Very reliable and a fast little car..

I would get a vw passat or golf with a turbo diesel engine and a manual transmition they are very reliable cars and last along time, the tdi engine is very very efficiant (40 plus mpg) and its pretty nippy, also a manual transmition is more economicle and less goes wrong with it (no oil changes on the tran) also its alot more enjoyable to drive so if you dont know how to learn go on its easy.Good luck

i would go with the vdub brand (Volkswagen) they have some nice 4cyl cars and are really reliable i have a 2000 black Jetta Gli real nice and is really responsive you can get the tdi version which is diesel and should give you about 40miles per gal real fuel efficient

Mazdas are good cars. There is also the new Ford Edge. People who have bought them are very happy. At least the ones that I spoken to.Do you have any pictures of the El Camino. I have an Uncle that is into Chevy's and has a big garage, so he may be interested. Email me with the pics.

I have had 3 Ford Escorts and none of them have ever been in the shop. They are excellent on gas mileage and have good pick up for a 4 cylinder. They are also American Made.

Mazda are great car and the 4 bangers are large displacement 2.3 lt so it feels quick and nimble

The most reliable new cars that are good on gas are:Honda CivicMazda 3Toyota CorollaNissan SentraHyundai ElantraKia Spectra
